Abstract

PURPOSE: To obtain a recording material with a suitability for recording using aqueous ink and a reuseability by providing a surface layer formed by radiation- crosslinking a hydrophilic resin on a substrate. CONSTITUTION: A hydrophilic resin can be radiation-crosslinked only by introducing a small amount of crosslinking per molecule of the hydrophilic resin. Therefore, there is no possibility that the hydrophilic properties of the resin content may be deteriorated. In addition, the possibility that the outermost surface may be made hydrophobic by thermal crosslinking is eliminated, and the hydrophilic properties of the outermost surface are not deteriorated. As the hydrophilic resin for binding a compound having radiation-crosslinkable functional groups, for example, a natural resin, such as a cellulose, or a synthetic polymer resin, such as a poly(meth)acrylic acid or other homopolymer or a copolymer of the components thereof with each other or with another component, is used. As the compound having radiation-crosslinkable functional groups to be bound with the hydrophilic resin, for example, a (meth)acrylic acid is used. An ultraviolet radiation, an electron beam, or the like can be used as a crosslinking radiation for producing a radical polymerization or a cation polymerization.

2. Description of the Related Art Recording with water-based ink is used in various fields because it has little adverse effect on the environment and the human body. In addition to conventional water-based pens, pen plotters, and the like, in recent years, ink jet printers and the like have become widespread and their usage has expanded. Paper is generally used as a recording material for recording using an aqueous ink, but it is often necessary to record on a resin film for over head projector, drawing, etc. In particular, the recording on the film for the over head projector is expected to increase in the future with the spread of the ink jet printer.

Since the main component of the ink is generally water or a mixture of water and a high boiling point alcohol or the like, it is a base material for films for electrostatic copying machines such as overhead projectors. When a recording material that is a resin film is used, the ink is not absorbed by the sheet at all, which causes the ink to be repelled or the ink not to dry and to be removed when touched. .

Of these, those having a surface layer based on a hydrophilic resin such as a highly water-absorbent resin or a water-soluble resin give particularly good results to the ink absorbency, but on the other hand,
The water resistance and moisture resistance of the surface layer are not high. In order to improve the water resistance and moisture resistance, a water-insoluble component may be copolymerized during the synthesis of the resin component (Japanese Patent Publication No. 5-48749, JP-A-62-233285, etc.), or the resin component may be heated. There have also been improvements such as effective cross-linking (JP-A-63-45083).

Further, since a recording material whose base material is a resin film, such as an overhead projector film for water-based ink, requires a special structure as described above,
Despite the fact that they are generally expensive and generate dust that leads to environmental damage, recycling technology such as reuse by collection and recycling has hardly been established. Such a problem of reuse is not limited to water-based ink and is a problem common to all recording materials, and an urgent response is desired.

The radiation cross-linking in the present invention requires only a small amount of cross-linking to be introduced per one molecule of the hydrophilic resin. Therefore, there is no fear of decreasing the hydrophilicity of the resin component, and the heat-crosslinking of the outermost surface of Since it does not hydrophobize,
There is no decrease in hydrophilicity on the outermost surface. Hydrophobicization of the outermost surface by thermal crosslinking is said to occur due to the penetration of the hydrophilic functional group into the interior and the exposure of the hydrophobic functional group to the air-side surface, and when molecular mobility is increased by heating, it rapidly increases. proceed. Therefore, although the heat is applied to some extent, the radiation crosslinking in which the crosslinking reaction is completed in a short time hardly causes such a movement of the molecule and does not cause the hydrophobicity. Also,
As in the case where the crosslinking reaction of the heat-crosslinkable functional group is performed at room temperature or the like, the reaction does not proceed for several days to several months, and stable water resistance and moisture resistance can be reliably obtained.

As the ink to be reused, a water-based ink is first mentioned. This type of ink is dissolved in water and extracted. Typical examples include ink jet ink and water-based pen ink. In addition, it is possible to reuse the toner ink, heat-sensitive ribbon ink, impact ribbon ink, solventless ink such as typewriter ribbon ink, and oil-based ink such as oil-based pen. In these cases, the ink does not seep inside and adheres to the surface, but when immersed in water,
Water invades between the surface layer and the ink to weaken the adhesive force between them, and the ink does not swell, and only the surface layer swells, causing distortion between the surface layer and the ink, and It is considered that it peels from the layer.

Water may be used to remove the ink.
The use of warm water of 0 ° C. or higher is more effective because the time required for removing the ink can be shortened. It is considered that this is because as the temperature is increased, the molecular motion becomes active, and water penetration and ink elution are promoted. Furthermore, water does not have to be liquid, and using high temperature steam is also a suitable method. Since water vapor is a gas, it is considered that the water vapor penetrates into the surface layer more quickly. When using steam, there is no water to wash out, so while spraying hot steam,
It is effective to wipe with cloth, paper, resin, etc.
