- Description of the Prior Art Pressure-sensitive recording paper as it has been known, for example, by US Pat. Nos. 2,712,507, 2,730,465, and 2,730,457, is based on the utilization of microcapsules containing a solution of a substantially colorless organic compound (hereinafter, referred to color former) and an electron-accepting adsorbent substance (hereinafter referred to color developer).

- the color developen which is capable for forming a color dye when contacted with the color former, may be an active clay substance, such as acid clay, active clay, attapulgite, zeolite or bentonite, and organic acidic substances, such as succinic acid, tannic acid, gallic acid, pentachlorophenol and phenol resins.

Field of the Invention This invention relates to a pressure-sensitive record- 5 2. Description of the Prior Art Pressure-sensitive recording paper, as it has been known, for example, by US Pat. Nos. 2,712,507, 2,730,465, and 2,730,457, is based on the utilization of microcapsules containing a solution of a substantially colorless organic compound (hereinafter, referred to color former) and an electron-accepting adsorbent substance (hereinafter referred to color developer).
In this application, an upper sheet means a support having coated thereon, a layer of microcapsules containing a color former; an intermediate sheet means a support having coated on one surface, a layer of microcapsules containing a color former and having coated on the opposite surface, a layer of color developer; and an undersheet means a support having coated thereon, a color developer. Further, a single-fold sheet means a support having coated thereon, a layer of microcapsules and a color developer, simultaneously.
Illustrative of the color formers are malachite green t n which s ,.3-b (eim MlamimnhsnrD- phthalide, benzoyl leuco methylene blue, crystal violet lactone, which is 3,3bis(p-dimethylaminophenyl)-6 dimethylamino phthalide, Rhodamine B lactam, 3- dialkylaminoJ dialkylamino-fluorans, and 3 -methyl- On the other hand, the color developen which is capable for forming a color dye when contacted with the color former, may be an active clay substance, such as acid clay, active clay, attapulgite, zeolite or bentonite, and organic acidic substances, such as succinic acid, tannic acid, gallic acid, pentachlorophenol and phenol resins.
The light resistance of the color dye formed by reaction of the color former and color developer depends upon the structure of the color former and also upon the color developer. The color developers now in wide use are clays, such as acidic clay. The light resistance of the color dye formed on an under sheet using this developer, although differing in the type of the color former, is generally poor except benzoyl leucomethylene blue. Hence, when such a paper is left indoors or exposed to sunlight, the density of the color dye formed on the paper is easily reduced; that is, the color changes easily. Accordingly, the commercial availability of pressure-sensitive recording paper is reduced.
The color former most often employed is a mixture of crystal violet lactone and benzoyl leuco methylene blue. Since crystal violet lactone has a very poor resistance to light, the color dye formed on the color developer sheet fades when allowed to stand indoors or exposed to sunlight. Consequently, only the light blue color formed from methylene blue remains, which obviously reduces the commercial value of the recording paper. For the production of a black color or green color, m nq:7rdi thyl miwfluq an isusefii It develops a green cdlor on acid clay, but changes to red brown on standing indoors or on exposure to sun. light. Accordingly, the black or green color formed by.
3benzylamino-7-diethylaminofluoran assumes a reddish color on standing indoors or exposure to sunlight, resulting in a reduction in the commercial value of the pressure-sensitive recording paper.
SUMMARY OF THE PRESENT INVENTION It is an object of this invention to provide a pressuresensitive recording paper having excellent resistance to light.
The foregoing object is achieved by incorporating at least one ether derivative of an aromatic hydroxyl compound in the coating layer of the pressure-sensitive recording paper.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Examples of the ether derivative of the aromatic hydroxyl compound applicable to this invention include p-chloroanisole, p-methylanisole, p-acetoxyanisole, pacetaminoanisole, o-chloroanisole, m-chloroanisole, N
B-cyanoethyl p-anisidene, pqs ktwnmflahwsyhs zqn n n albi(p-methoxyphenyl)propane, catechol dimethyl ether, resorcinol dimethyl ether, hydroquinone dimethyl ether, catechol diethyl ether, resorcinol dipropyl ether, hydroquinone dibutyl ether, p-methoxybenzoic acid ethyl ester, p-ethoxybenzenesulfonamide, l-phenoxy-- 2-cyanoethane, lphenoxy-Z-hydroxyethane, lphenoxy-Z-chloroethane, diphenyl ether, hydroquipounds to a color developer.
The acceptable amount of the ether derivative of the aromatic hydroxyl compound applicable to this invention ranges from 10 to 200% by weight based on the weight of the color former used, or 0.2 to 10% based on the weight of the color developer used.
Microcapsules containing the color former may be produced, for example, by the process disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 2,700,458, but the process of microcapsulation is not limited to such, since the present invention is directed to incorporation of the ether derivative.
A better understanding of the present invention will be attained from the following examples, which are merely intended to be illustrative and not limitative of 'the present invention. All parts are by weight unless otherwise stated.
Example I former oil in which 3% of hydroquinone dimethyl ether had been dissolved. This mixed solution was emulsified and dispersed. The color former oil consisted of a solution of four parts of diphenyl chloride and one part of kerosene in which 2% of crystal violet lactone was dissolved.
When the average sizes of the oil droplets reached 5 microns, the emulsification was stopped. Water at 40 C. was added to the emulsion to make 900 parts, and stirring was continued. In this case, caution should be taken not to lower the temperature below 40 C. Thereafter, acetic acid was added to adjust the pH of the liquid to 4.0 and thereby induce coacervation. Stirring was further continued for minutes, and then the mixture was cooled with ,ice water to cause gelation of coacervate films deposited around the oil droplets. When the temperature of the liquid became 20 C., seven parts of a 37% formaldehyde solution were added. When the temperature dropped to 10 C., an aqueous 15% solution of sodium hydroxide was added to adjust the pH to 9. The addition of the sodium hydroxide was performed with meticulous care so as not to coagulate the system. With continued stirring, the liquid was heated to 50 C. After cooling to C., the microcapsule liquid thus obtained was coated onto a paper having a unit weight of 40 g/rn in an amount of 6 g/m as solid content, and dried to make an upper sheet of pressure sensitive recording paper.
Example 2 To 40 parts of a color former oil consisting of a solution of 2% crystal violet lactone in an oil conposed of four parts of diphenyl chloride and one part of kerosene was dissolved 3%, based on the color former oil, of N-(B-cyanoethyl) p-anisidine. The solution was microencapsulated in the same manner as in Example 1. The resulting microcapsule liquid was coated onto a paper having a unit weight of 40 g/m in an amount of 6 g/m as solid content, and dried to form an upper sheet of pressure-sensitive recording paper.

After allowing the paper to stand for 1 hour in a dark place, the spectral absorption curve (fresh) in a wavelength region of 700 to 380 mp. was measured. The spectral absorption curve of the developed color after sunlight exposure for 1 hour and 3 hours, respectively, was also measured.
The results are shown in FIG. 5 (1). The light resistance values were calculated in the same was as in Comparative Test 1. The results are given in Table 6. The result of Comparative Example 4 was the same as that of Comparative Example 2.

After allowing the paper to stand for I hour in dark, the spectral absorption curve (fresh) in a wavelength region of 700 to 380 mp. was measured. The spectral absorption curve of the developed color after sunlight exposure for 1 hour and 3 hours, respectively, was also measured. The results are shown in FIG. 6, (1) to (2).The'result' of Comparative Example 4 was the same as that of Comparative Example 3.
