  • Patent number: 8999495
    Abstract: A recording material for electrophotographic printing methods from a base paper coated on both sides with synthetic resin and having a toner-receiving layer arranged on at least one side, containing a water-soluble or water-dispersible binder in the toner-receiving layer, preferably an ethylene-acrylate polymer or an ethylene-acrylate copolymer, a finely particulate inorganic pigment and an antistatic component, such that images using both liquid toners and dry toners can be produced with this recording material, identical in both appearance and haptics to silver halide photographs.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 15, 2011
    Date of Patent: April 7, 2015
    Assignee: Schoeller Technocell GmbH & Co. KG

  • Patent number: 8197919
    Abstract: A recording material comprises a machine-finished paper which is coated with a synthetic resin on at least one side and at least one porous image recording layer, wherein the machine-finished paper is coated with a synthetic resin at least on the rear-side and this rear-side synthetic resin layer is perforated in such a way that the perforation holes reach as far as into the machine-finished paper, wherein the penetration depth is at most 1.5 to 4 times the synthetic resin layer thickness.

  • Publication number: 20110163528
    Abstract: Recording materials for electrophotographic methods, comprising a raw paper coated on both sides with a synthetic resin and a toner-sensitive layer, wherein the synthetic resin-coated paper has a specific surface topography, expressed as a roughness Rz of 1.5 to 13 ?m, and an average Ra value of 0.05 to 2 ?m, the toner-absorbing layer comprises a polymer combination of a toner-absorbing ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer (A), a carboxylated acrylic acid ester copolymer (B) and a polymer (C), and polymer (C) has an average particle size d50% of 5 to 20 ?m and a melting point that is higher than the melting range of copolymer (A) and lower than the melting range of copolymer (B).
