Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field related to thermal transfer carbon ribbons, and in particular to a thermal transfer carbon ribbon for light box cloth. Background Art

[0002] At present, most of the colorful patterns and texts on advertising light boxes are realized by pasting films on the light box cloth. However, its production and installation costs are relatively high, making it less suitable for some occasions with limited budgets. By preparing a carbon ribbon that can be thermally transferred on the light box cloth, it is also a feasible solution for making light boxes to print various required patterns on the light box cloth printing substrate. Summary of the invention

[0003] In order to solve one or more technical problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a thermal transfer carbon ribbon for light box cloth.

[0004] The technical solution of the present invention to solve the above technical problems is as follows: A thermal transfer carbon ribbon for a light box cloth comprises a substrate layer, a color layer and a back coating layer, wherein the color layer is arranged on one side of the substrate layer, and the back coating layer is arranged on the other side of the substrate layer;

[0005] The components of the color layer include methacrylic acid copolymer A, methacrylic acid copolymer B, chloroacetic acid resin, pigment, wax and a first filler.

[0006] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the light box cloth printed with the thermal transfer carbon ribbon of the present invention has uniform tone, bright colors, delicate pictures, and the surface of the light box is smooth and seamless, and not easy to wrinkle. The carbon ribbon structure is mainly composed of a back coating and a front color layer, and the pattern can be produced by digital printing without film pasting, with low cost and high efficiency. By strictly controlling the pigment dispersion process and adding specific fillers or additives to matte the carbon ribbon, it has high weather resistance and certain light transmittance, which does not affect the use of the light box at night, so that it has the same display effect during the day and at night.

[0007] Among them, the wax can be selected from microcrystalline wax, carnauba wax, paraffin wax, Fischer-Tropsch wax, various low molecular weight polyethylenes, candelilla wax, polyester wax, partially modified wax, fatty acid esters and fatty acid amides, etc., preferably polyethylene wax; the content of the wax in the color layer is 0.5%-5%, preferably 2%-4%, and the wax can provide good smoothness of the pattern after printing and improve the friction resistance of the pattern. When the content is low, it cannot provide sufficient smoothness and the friction resistance of the pattern decreases. When the content is too high, it affects its adhesion to the light box cloth printing substrate; directly adding wax powder to the color layer instead of selecting a wax system release layer can ensure that the main component of the pattern surface after printing is resin, and the pattern layer can be used as a good printing coating for subsequent color printing to ensure that the pattern formed after multi-color printing has good adhesion and transfer integrity.

[0008] The filler can be ultrafine silica, talc, kaolin, etc., preferably ultrafine silica; the content of the filler in the color layer is 3%-10%, preferably 3%-5%. The filler can effectively reduce glare, make the reflection of light on the surface of the film more uniform and soft, reduce bright spots or dark areas caused by concentrated reflection of light, help maintain color uniformity in reflection and projection environments, and allow viewers to experience consistent color performance from different angles.

[0009] The resin carbon ribbon of the present invention has a simple structure, is free of auxiliary coatings such as various adhesive layers and release layers, and has good economic efficiency.

[0010] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention can also be improved as follows.

[0011] Furthermore, the molecular weight of the methacrylic acid copolymer A is greater than 80,000, and the glass transition temperature Tg is greater than 90°C; the molecular weight of the methacrylic acid copolymer B is less than 40,000, and the glass transition temperature Tg is less than 100°C; the vinyl chloride content in the chlorovinyl resin is greater than 85%, and the degree of polymerization K is greater than 15.

[0012] The beneficial effect of adopting the above further scheme is: using two methacrylic acid copolymers, one with a high molecular weight greater than 80,000, can give the printed pattern good light resistance and weather resistance, and at the same time, the methacrylic acid copolymer has a good waterproof effect, which can further improve the life and effect of the printed pattern in outdoor use. The other uses a smaller molecular weight of less than 40,000, has good light transmittance and good peeling transfer, which can ensure that the carbon ribbon has good transfer ability. Vinyl chloride resin has excellent pigment dispersibility and film-forming properties, which provides good help for the coating and film formation of the carbon ribbon. At the same time, it has good adhesion to the substrate PET, ensuring the good foil retention of the carbon ribbon ink. The high polar groups it contains provide help for the good transfer adaptability of the carbon ribbon on various substrates.

[0013] Furthermore, the molecular weight of the methacrylic acid copolymer A is greater than 110,000, and the glass transition temperature Tg is greater than 100°C; the molecular weight of the methacrylic acid copolymer B is less than 10,000, and the glass transition temperature Tg is less than 80°C.

[0014] Furthermore, the pigment is an organic pigment, and the particle size D50 of the pigment in the color layer is less than 0.1, and D100 is less than 0.3.

[0015] The beneficial effect of adopting the above further scheme is that the pigment can be selected from yellow (such as PY150, PY110, PY83, PY139, PY192, PY13, etc.), red (such as PR149, PR254, PR264, PR177, PR122, etc.), blue (phthalocyanine blue 15:0, phthalocyanine blue 15:1, phthalocyanine blue 15:2, phthalocyanine blue 15:3, phthalocyanine blue 15:4 and phthalocyanine blue 15:6), green (phthalocyanine green 7 and phthalocyanine green 34), purple (pigment violet 19, pigment violet 23, etc.), black (carbon black), etc. The pigment is subsequently ground to control its particle size D50 < 0.1 and D100 < 0.3, so that it can be evenly distributed in the coating so that under the action of light, the absorption and reflection of light of different wavelengths are relatively consistent, and the entire film surface presents a uniform color effect, avoiding color differences caused by pigment agglomeration or uneven distribution. This type of pigment has good light transmittance, light resistance and weather resistance, which can improve the color effect during thermal transfer and the reliability of outdoor use.

[0016] Furthermore, in terms of weight percentage, the methacrylic acid copolymer accounts for 30% to 50% of the color layer, the acrylic acid copolymer accounts for 3% to 10% of the color layer, the chlorovinyl resin accounts for 8% to 15% of the color layer, the pigment accounts for 30% to 50% of the color layer, the wax accounts for 0.5% to 5% of the color layer, and the first filler accounts for 3% to 10% of the color layer.

[0017] Furthermore, the preparation method of the color layer is as follows: methacrylic acid copolymer A, methacrylic acid copolymer B, chloroacetic resin, pigment, wax and filler are dissolved and ground to prepare a color layer coating liquid, so that the pigment particle size D50 in the color layer coating liquid is less than 0.1 and D100 is less than 0.3, and the color layer is coated on the substrate layer by a 300-340-line ceramic anilox roller and a gravure coater, and dried at a temperature of 80°C to 100°C, and the coating speed is 60m / min to 100m / min.

[0018] Furthermore, the substrate layer is one of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film, 1,4-polycyclohexylene dimethylene terephthalate film, polyethylene naphthalate (PEN) film, polyphenylene sulfide film, polystyrene (PS) film, polypropylene (PP) film, polyethylene (PE) film, polyvinyl chloride film, nylon film, and polyimide film.

[0019] Furthermore, the back coating layer comprises cellulose acetate propionate, polyvinyl acetal resin, polyvinyl butyral resin, a binder, a lubricant, a second filler, a cross-linking agent and an auxiliary agent.

[0020] Among them, the binder includes a high-adhesive resin such as polyester, polyurethane, etc.; the lubricant includes phosphate, zinc stearate, glycerol dioleate, glycerol monooleate, etc. The second filler has a self-cleaning effect and includes inorganic particles such as talc, kaolin, calcium carbonate, aluminum hydroxide, silicon dioxide, graphite, boron nitride, etc. The cross-linking agent includes isocyanate compounds, etc. The auxiliary agent includes one or more of a leveling agent, a dispersant, and an antistatic agent.

[0021] The beneficial effect of adopting the above further solution is that the purpose of the back coating is to prevent adverse effects such as stickiness or wrinkles caused by heating by a temperature-sensitive heating head during thermal transfer.

[0022] Furthermore, the preparation method of the back coating layer is to dissolve the components of the back coating layer to prepare a back coating layer coating liquid, and then use a 200-250-line ceramic anilox roller and a gravure coater to coat the back coating liquid on the substrate layer, dry it at 60°C to 100°C, and the coating speed is 60m / min to 100m / min.

[0023] Furthermore, the thickness of the substrate layer is 4 μm to 10 μm, preferably 4 μm to 6 μm; the thickness of the back coating layer is 0.1 μm to 0.5 μm, preferably 0.2 μm to 0.4 μm; the thickness of the color layer is 0.6 μm to 1.2 μm, preferably 0.8 μm to 1.0 μm.

[0064] Use a thermal transfer printer (manufactured by Hunan Dingyi Intelligent Manufacturing Co., Ltd., model DTP-330) to print the required pattern on the outdoor light box cloth.

[0065] The peeling test was carried out using a disc glass tester. After peeling, the exposed white area was less than 1%, and the evaluation was carried out according to the following evaluation criteria:

[0068] Accelerated aging test:

[0070] According to the operation method of "GB / T 16422.2-2014 Plastics Laboratory Light Source Exposure Test Method Part 2: Xenon Arc Lamp", test cycle: 1800h:

[0071] The formed images were visually confirmed and evaluated according to the following evaluation criteria:

[0073] NG: The pattern is obviously faded.

[0074] Use a thermal transfer printer (manufactured by Hunan Dingyi Intelligent Manufacturing Co., Ltd., model DTP-330) to print the required pattern on the outdoor light box cloth.

[0075] The glossiness of the color pattern of the light box cloth was tested using a gloss meter and evaluated according to the following evaluation criteria:

[0076] NG: glossiness <10%, glossiness >60%;

[0077] OK: Glossiness 15-60%.

[0080] OK: D50<0.1, D100<0.3;

[0087] As can be seen from Table 1 and Table 2, by comparing Example 1 with Comparative Example 1, it can be seen that the addition of fillers can effectively achieve the matte effect. This is because in the coating system, the ultrafine silica is dispersed in the paint film in the form of particles after addition. These particles will form tiny concave-convex structures on the surface of the paint film, destroying the original smoothness of the paint film. When light is irradiated on this uneven surface, diffuse reflection will occur, which will weaken the gloss of the material surface and enhance the matte effect.

[0088] By comparing Example 5 with Comparative Example 2, it can be seen that the addition of chloroacetic acid resin can improve the adhesion between the carbon ribbon and the printing substrate. The commonly used substrates of light box cloth, such as polyester fiber, also have a certain polarity. According to the principle of like dissolves like, the chloroacetic acid resin with stronger polarity can form better intermolecular force with the light box cloth substrate and improve the adhesion with the substrate.

[0089] By comparing Example 2 with Comparative Example 3, it can be seen that the addition of methacrylic acid copolymer A can effectively improve the service life of the carbon ribbon. The acrylic resin molecule contains a large number of carbon-carbon bonds (CC) and carbon-oxygen bonds (CO). These chemical bonds have high bond energy, making the molecular structure relatively stable and not easily destroyed by external environmental factors (such as ultraviolet rays, oxygen, temperature changes, etc.).

[0090] From the comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Example 4, it can be seen that the ink grinding particle size has a certain influence on the color uniformity and light transmittance of the carbon ribbon. When the ink particle size is small, the particles have relatively weak light shielding and scattering effects, making the film surface more transparent and able to better pass the light from the light box at night.
