  • Patent number: 7776435
    Abstract: The present invention is an electrophotographic transfer paper where at least one side of the base paper is given a coating layer with a pigment and an adhesive agent to form coated paper and where the aforementioned adhesive contains a branched poly(meth)acrylamide copolymer having a cationic groups and/or anionic groups and also has a weight average molecular weight of 50,000 to 1,000,000. The electrophotographic transfer paper in the present invention has superior high-speed throughput performance despite low basis weight and a low coating weight, therefore, good for high-speed copy machine and printer properties, especially, when it contained a printability improver in the coating layer, it has a good ink adhesion property and surface strength required in offset printing.

  • Patent number: 5846367
    Abstract: Disclosed is a heat transfer recording method that utilizes an indirect transfer medium with deformable layer deforming under heat and/or pressure and image-receiving layer having adhesiveness to the image formed by fusion type heat transfer recording of hot peeling mode and allowing to retransfer the formed image alone onto image receiver provided on a supporter in this order. In this indirect transfer medium, the constituting material of that deformable layer comprises a substance with softening temperature of not higher than 90.degree. C. and stretch at breaking point of not less than 400%, and further the constituting material of the image-receiving layer contains a substance, in which the major component is acrylic resin comprising methyl methacrylate or/and hydroxyethyl methacrylate and this is graft copolymerized with hydroxyethyl methacrylate or/and N-methylol acrylamide.

  • Patent number: 5739860
    Abstract: In a moving picture decoding apparatus, an output section is provided with a circuit for making a logic sum of control signals for renewing a picture data output, as a control signal for determining a picture data to be next outputted in a selected mode. Thereby, according to a request, newly decoded picture data is discarded or an inputted picture data is discarded without being decoded, and picture data which is currently being outputted is outputted again. In response to a control signal for renewing the output, decoded picture data to be outputted subsequently is outputted and picture data which is currently being outputted is discarded.
