Claims
- 1. An aqueous slurry for coating pressure-sensitive record sheets, said aqueous slurry including:
- (a) a plurality of microcapsules, said microcapsules containing a solution of a color precursor in an oil carrier, said color precursor in said oil carrier being capable of forming a color with a color developer without heating to an elevated temperature, said microcapsules having walls comprising a reaction product of a wall forming compound and a cross-linking agent; wherein said wall forming compound is hydroxypropylcellulose and said cross-linking agent is selected from the group consisting of polyfunctional isocyanates, acyl chlorides, phosphonyl chlorides, sulfonyl chlorides, alkylene bischloroformates and mixtures thereof;
- (b) a solid particulate color developer for said color precursor; and
- (c) a color suppressant comprising a nitrogen containing basic organic compound selected from the group consisting of: amines, polyethylenimines and aziridines, said color suppressant being present in said aqueous slurry in an amount of from about 0.1 percent to about 5.0 percent based on the dry weight of said slurry, said amount being sufficient to substantially prevent color formation between said color developer and any unencapsulated solution of said color precursor in said oil carrier.
- 2. The aqueous slurry of claim 1 wherein said color suppressant is polyfunctional aziridine.
- 3. The aqueous slurry of claim 1 further including an optical brightener, said optical brightener being a stilbene derivative.
- 4. The aqueous slurry of claim 1 further including a sequestering agent, said sequestering agent being a pentasodium salt of aminotrimethylphosphoric acid.
- 5. An aqueous slurry for coating pressure-sensitive record sheets, said aqueous slurry including:
- (a) a plurality of microcapsules, said microcapsules containing a solution of a color precursor in an oil carrier, said color precursor in said oil carrier being capable of forming a color with a color developer without heating to an elevated temperature, said microcapsules having walls comprising a reaction product of hydroxypropylcellulose and a cross-linking agent, said cross-linking agent being a polyfunctional isocyanate;
- (b) a solid particulate color developer for said color precursor, said color developer being an oil soluble phenolformaldehyde novolak resin;
- (c) a color suppressant, said color suppressant being present in an amount of from about 0.1 percent to about 5.0 percent based on the dry weight of said slurry, said amount being sufficient to substantially prevent color formation between said color developer and any unencapsulated solution of said color precursor in said oil carrier, said color suppressant being a nitrogen containing basic organic compound selected from the group consisting of: amines, polyethylenimines, and polyfunctional aziridines; and
- (d) a binder for said aqueous slurry, said binder being polyvinyl alcohol.
- 6. An aqueous slurry for coating pressure-sensitive record sheets, said aqueous slurry including:
- (a) a plurality of microcapsules, said microcapsules containing a solution of a color precursor in an oil carrier, said color precursor in said oil carrier being capable of forming a color with a color developer without heating to an elevated temperature, said microcapsules having walls formed by the reaction of a polyvalent polyisocyanate with a second wall forming compound, said second wall forming compound being selected from the groups consisting of epoxy compounds, acid anhydride compounds, compounds having at least two groups selected from the class consisting of a hydroxyl group, a thiol group, an amino group, and a carboxylic acid group, and prepolymers of said compounds;
- (b) a solid particulate color developer for said color precursor; and
- (c) a color suppressant comprising a nitrogen containing basic organic compound selected from the group consisting of amines, polyethylenimines and aziridines, said color suppressant being present in said aqueous slurry in an amount of from about 0.1 percent to about 5.0 percent based on the dry weight of said slurry, said amount being sufficient to substantially prevent color formation between said color developer and any unencapsulated solution of said color precursor in said color oil carrier.
