  • Patent number: 4629630
    Abstract: A check paper is being described which is protected against falsifications and forgeries. Crushable micro capsules are being embedded in check paper which contain on one hand a leuco ink and on the other hand a color acceptor. The color acceptor can also be stored in the body of the paper without the use of micro capsules. The leuco ink and the color acceptor react together under color development or color changes if the micro capsules burst through imprinting or other local pressure application to the paper surface. Thus, a character written on the paper surface becomes visible within the body of the paper and cannot be forged anymore.

  • Patent number: 4543157
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to process and apparatus for the production of variegated paper, especially including but not limited to paper used in the manufacture of simulated caning material. The process involves the indirect application of aqueous dye solutions to a wet paper web, after formation on the wire and passage of the web through the wet press section, but prior to drying. Multiple jet-like streams of a plurality of dye solutions are directed at the surface of a resilient transfer roller, while being oscillated transversely of the web in an asynchronous manner. Jet-like streams of dye solution apply a relatively wide flow pattern to the surface of the transfer roller, and also cause substantial desirable splattering of the dye solution on the roll surface for subsequent transfer to the wet web, as it passes through a pressure nip formed in part by the transfer roller.

  • Patent number: 4381185
    Abstract: Water-fast printing of paper stock using a colorant solution containing water-soluble polymeric dyes is accomplished by a three step process. Step 1 is selecting a paper stock characterized as containing at least 250 ppm by weight of cation, particularly a polyvalent metal cation (especially Ca.sup.2+ or Al.sup.3+). In step 2, a colorant solution is applied to the paper. This solution is water-based, containing up to 30 wt % of an organic paper-penetrating agent (such as an alkanol), and at least 500 ppm of one or more anionic group-possessing polymeric colorants. In step 3, the solvent is exhausted by either evaporation (which may be aided by the application of heat) or diffusion into the paper stock, or by a combination of both.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus especially adapted to produce a ply separable web requiring substantially less energy input for drying. The apparatus comprises a headbox having at least three stock flow channels, the outer channels being adapted to convey conventional aqueous stock solutions, with at least one inner channel adapted to convey airborne fibers. The resulting web, having a significant portion of the fibers in a dry state, requires less energy to dry, and the distinct layers provide shear zones therebetween which permit ply separation upon creping. Different fiber types may be provided in different layers depending upon product attributes desired, and the products may be conventionally dried or may be throughdried.
