Abstract: The present invention is concerned with a thermal delayed tack composition which is non-adhesive at ordinary temperatures but can be activated and tackified when heated and can maintain its tackiness for a long period of time even after separated from a heat source, and thermal delayed tack sheets prepared by coating basic sheets with this thermal delayed tack composition and then drying the same. The thermal delayed tack sheets have the features that even when they are wound into a roll or superimposed upon each other, no blocking or sticking occurs, and that the tackiness thereof can be maintained for a long period of time even upon a plastic material such as for example polyethylene having low polarity.

Abstract: A donor sheet for pressure-sensitive image recording which comprises a support, an undercoating layer applied onto said support, and an overcoating layer applied onto said undercoating layer, said undercoating layer comprising microcapsules containing a solid wax, and said overcoating layer comprising microcapsules containing an image-forming component. By using said donor sheet, record images having a sufficiently high color density and a high resolution degree can be formed on a receptor sheet.

Abstract: A stable emulsion of microcapsules is obtained by polymerizing at least one water-soluble vinyl monomer in an aqueous solution of an oil-soluble vinyl monomer-maleic anhydride-maleic ester multipolymer to prepare a water-soluble resin, dispersing or emulsifying discrete fine particles of a hydrophobic material in an acidic aqueous solution of the water-soluble resin, adding an amino resin precursor separately prepared to the dispersion or emulsion, and heating the mixture.

Abstract: Disclosed is an image-receiving color-forming sheet for transfer-type electrophotography which comprises a support, a color forming layer containing an electron accepting material provided thereon and a high resistivity layer, wherein a self-emulsifiable resin mainly composed of acrylate ester and/or methacrylate ester is used as a dielectric substance contained in said high resistivity layer.

Abstract: A self-contained color forming pressure sensitive record paper of the single coating type which has on one side of a support a coating layer of a mixture of color former-containing microcapsules and color developer-containing microcapsules, as well as a powdered polyolefin. The powdered polyolefin acts as capsule protecting agent and prevents the smudging due to unintentional color development caused by the rapture of the capsules.
