Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of labels, in particular to a heat-sensitive surface material capable of improving the clarity of label printing and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] As early as 1700, Europe printed the first batch of labels for use on medicines and cloth as commodity identification. Therefore, today's labels are used to mark product targets and categories or contents, like providing keywords to identify targets, making it easier for people to find and locate their targets. Most of the labels referred to in the printing industry are printed materials used to identify the relevant instructions of their own products, and most of them have self-adhesive adhesive on the back. However, there are also some that are not adhesive when printed, which can also be called labels. Labels with adhesive are commonly known as "self-adhesive labels." Regarding the labeling issue after instrument calibration, this is a label uniformly stipulated by the state (or one's own provincial regulations). The label can clearly indicate the details of the instrument after calibration.

[0003] Existing technologies, such as Chinese patent publication number CN101896955B, disclose a label that provides a heat-shrinkable polyester film with excellent seam sealing properties, high productivity, and resistance to longitudinal tearing during printing and other processing. The label is formed from this heat-shrinkable film and exhibits excellent tear resistance. The label is cut to fit the packaging object and heat-shrunk into a ring-shaped body bonded to both ends in the film's width, thereby covering at least a portion of the outer periphery of the packaging object. The label exhibits a right-angle tear strength in a direction perpendicular to the principal shrinkage direction (film longitudinal direction) of 100 N / mm to 310 N / mm, and a tensile strength in a direction perpendicular to the principal shrinkage direction (film longitudinal direction) of 50 MPa to 300 MPa.

[0004] The aforementioned existing technical solutions have the following drawbacks: Although these labels have excellent sealing and tear resistance, they, like most labels on the market, are made of thermal paper. Some companies use thermal paper as label paper during production, and use label printers to print QR codes and product information on the labels. However, existing label paper suffers from unclear printing, making it difficult for consumers to accurately read the product information on the label. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a thermal surface material that can improve label printing clarity. Summary of the Invention

[0014] In a preferred example, the present invention can be further configured as follows: the first adhesive layer and the second adhesive layer are both adhesive layers made of hot melt adhesive, water adhesive or solvent adhesive, and the base color layer is made of the following raw materials in parts by weight: 0.1-0.5 parts of dispersant, 5-10 parts of calcined kaolin, 2-6 parts of 4,4'-dihydroxydiphenyl sulfone, 5-8 parts of zinc stearate emulsion, 0.5-0.8 parts of cast polypropylene, and 0.1-0.5 parts of defoaming agent.

A composite coating is provided between a thermal layer and a base color layer.

The porosity of the nano-aluminum oxide powder layer and the nano-calcium carbonate coating is as high as over 75%, and the porosity of the fiber layer is as high as over 80%. When a large amount of ink is printed, the ink is quickly absorbed into the aluminum oxide powder layer, the nano-calcium carbonate coating and the fiber layer, so that the printed label can maintain extremely high image clarity.

[0025] Furthermore, due to the high porosity of the fiber layer, the nano-scale calcium carbonate coating and nano-scale aluminum oxide powder layer can be well hidden within the fiber layer, making the fiber layer more substantial and increasing the toughness and elasticity of the label. When the label is bent, the printed content is not easily affected, effectively solving the problems of label curling and bubbling when exposed to water. This has an unexpected effect, a high degree of innovation, and great economic promotion value. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0074] A method for preparing the above-mentioned thermal surface material capable of improving label printing clarity comprises the following steps:

[0075] S1. Preparation of heat-sensitive layer 1: 1,2-diphenoxyethane, zinc stearate, sensitizer, diatomaceous earth, and water are uniformly mixed in proportion to obtain a mixed solution 1;

[0076] Then, the adhesive, the colorless dye, the polyvinyl alcohol, the lubricant, the water-retaining agent, the color developer, and the dispersant are mixed uniformly in proportion to obtain a mixed solution 2;

[0077] Mix the mixture 1 and the mixture 2, add phenolic resin and methyl benzoate in proportion, and stir evenly to obtain a heat-sensitive emulsion.

[0078] S2, preparation of composite coating 2: natural rosin modified resin, terpene resin, naphthenic oil, compatibilizer, softener, graphene, silane coupling agent, antioxidant, lubricant, and antifogging agent are mixed in proportion to obtain an isolation emulsion, the isolation emulsion is evenly coated on the nano-aluminum oxide powder layer 22, and then the nano-calcium carbonate coating 23 is covered on the isolation emulsion to obtain composite coating 2;

[0079] S3, preparation of base color layer 3: dispersant, calcined kaolin, 4,4'-dihydroxydiphenyl sulfone, zinc stearate emulsion, cast polypropylene, and defoamer are mixed uniformly in proportion to form a base color emulsion, and waterproof layer 4 is covered on adhesive layer 5, and the base color emulsion is evenly coated on waterproof layer 4;

[0080] S4. Preparation of thermal surface material: Cover the composite coating 2 prepared in step S2 on the base color layer 3, and then cover the thermal layer 1 prepared in step S1 on the nano-scale aluminum oxide powder layer 22 of the composite coating 2 to obtain a thermal surface material that can improve the clarity of label printing.

[0081] In the present invention, any one of the films, namely, the laminating film, the polyethylene film, the polypropylene film or the polyester film, can make the label have good water resistance, effectively prevent the migration of components in the glue from causing heat-sensitive fading, and ensure the stability of the label quality.

[0082] The main raw material of nano-calcium carbonate can be derived from common and inexpensive materials such as stone and stone powder slurry. Therefore, the production cost of the printing paper of the present invention is relatively low. Moreover, if the printing paper needs to be discarded, it only needs to be exposed to the sun for a long time, such as 2-3 months, to weather into stone powder, without producing highly toxic gases and carcinogens, which is beneficial to the environment.

[0083] Natural rosin modified resin is a modified resin obtained by high-temperature esterification of natural rosin. Under the action of thermal disproportionation reaction, its conjugated double bonds and oxygen absorption capacity are reduced, and its aging resistance is improved. However, due to its small relative molecular weight and low softening point, most of it is compatible with the D segment (rubber segment) when mixed with the elastomer. It can well adhere the nano-aluminum oxide powder layer 22 and the nano-calcium carbonate coating 23 to the isolation layer 24.

[0084] Comparative Example 1: Traditional label thermal paper on the market.

[0085] The above-mentioned examples 1-3 and the conventional label thermal paper of comparative example 1 were respectively printed with the same text using a label printer, and the text on the labels was observed. The specific results are shown in Table 1

[0086] Table 1 Application effects of label paper with different thermal surface materials

[0087] Printing completed in 12 hours Printing completed in 1 week Example 1 Clear handwriting The writing is clear, but the font color is light Example 2 Clear handwriting The handwriting is clear and the label paper is complete. Example 3 Clear handwriting The handwriting is clear and the label paper is complete. Comparative Example 1 Clear handwriting The handwriting is blurred and there are gray and black stains on the paper.

[0088] The above results show that the thermal surface material prepared in this application has a good function of keeping the handwriting clear. In the present invention, the thermal surface material prepared in Example 3 is preferably used as label paper for printing. The QR code and product information printed on this label paper can keep the handwriting clear for a long time.

[0089] The implementation principle of the present invention is as follows: the present invention discloses a thermal surface material and a preparation method thereof that can improve the clarity of label printing. A composite coating 2 is arranged between the thermal layer 1 and the base color layer 3. The composite coating 2 is composed of a fiber layer 21 and a nano-aluminum oxide powder layer 22 and a nano-calcium carbonate coating 23 arranged in the fiber layer 21. The porosity of the nano-aluminum oxide powder layer 22 and the nano-calcium carbonate coating 23 is as high as more than 75%, and the porosity of the fiber layer 21 is as high as more than 80%. When printing a large amount of ink, it will be quickly absorbed into the aluminum oxide powder layer, the nano-calcium carbonate coating 23 and the fiber layer 21, so that the printing of the label can maintain extremely high image clarity.

[0090] Furthermore, due to the high porosity of the fiber layer 21, the nano-scale calcium carbonate coating 23 and the nano-scale aluminum oxide powder layer 22 can be well hidden within the fiber layer 21, making the fiber layer 21 more substantial and increasing the toughness and elasticity of the label. This effectively solves the problems of label curling and bubbling caused by water contact, resulting in unexpected results, a high degree of innovation, and great economic value.

[0091] The embodiments of this specific implementation method are all preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
