  • Patent number: 5622781
    Abstract: A toner recording medium including a substrate, such as paper, containing a coating composition of particulate silica and a polyvinyl alcohol in a coating weight of less than 2.0 g/m.sup.2 per side of the substrate. The composition is preferably about 50 to less than 90 parts by dry weight of particulate silica and about 10 to 50 parts by dry weight binder. A process is also disclosed for coating a substrate, such as paper, to produce a toner recording medium.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 2, 1995
    Date of Patent: April 22, 1997
    Assignee: Moore Business Forms, Inc.
    Inventors: Norman Macaulay, Nancy G. Mitchell, Mary R. Dean

  • Patent number: 4977131
    Abstract: A carbonless copying system which enables the formation of images that are capable of being detected by an optical character recognition (OCR) device. A phenolic resin or reactive clay image-forming component is applied as a CF coating on a recording substrate. A first complementary image-forming component which is a microencapsulated dye precursor that is capable of forming a colored image when contacting the CF coating is applied as a CB coating to a transfer substrate. A second complementary image-forming component, which is a microencapsulated dye precursor capable of forming a colored image when contacting the CF coating that is detectable by an OCR device, is applied as a CB coating to selected portions of the transfer substrate.

  • Patent number: 4943554
    Abstract: A carbonless copy system which enables the formation of a plurality of different colored images on a substrate. A phenolic resin or reactive clay image-forming component is applied as a CF coating on a recording substrate. One or more coatings of encapsulated dye precursors (complementary image-forming components) are applied to selected portions of the CF coating on the recording substrate and one or more coatings of encapsulated dye precursors are applied to selected portions of a transfer substrate. The dye precursor coatings are capable of forming different colored reaction products when coming into contact and reacting with the phenolic resin or reactive clay. Upon applying pressure to the transfer substrate, the dye precursor capsules are ruptured, releasing the dye precursor which contacts and reacts with the phenolic resin or reactive clay to form the colored reaction products.

  • Patent number: 4062567
    Abstract: A set of carbonless recording sheets wherein each of the individual sheets of the set may be separately stacked with sheets which are identical thereto without the danger of offsetting or inadvertent reproduction occurring through that stack. The sheets become operative only when assembled into the manifolded set. The central, intermediate sheets of the manifolded set are each coated front and back with respective chemicals which are incapable of reacting with one another to produce a color. The set includes at least two different types of intermediate sheets, one of which has a front coating capable of reacting with the back coating of the other to produce a color and vice versa.
