Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 15
Claim 1
Independent Claim
190 words
The process for forming a recording sheet comprising a support having thereon a color developer layer containing (1) a metal compound of an aromatic carboxylic acid which is the reaction product of an alkali metal salt of an aromatic carboxylic acid and a water soluble metal salt wherein the metal is selected from the group consisting of a metal of Group 1B of the Periodic Table, a metal of Group IIA, a metal of Group IIB, a metal of Group IIIB, a metal of Group IVA, a metal of Group VIA, a metal of Group VIIB or a metal of Group VIII and (2) at least one of gelatin or a gelatin derivative formed by reacting gelatin with an aromatic or aliphatic compound, said metal compound of an aromatic carboxylic acid being capable of forming a colored image when reacted with a color former, which process comprises: reacting said alkali metal salt of said aromatic carboxylic acid and said water-soluble metal salt in the presence of at least one of said gelatin or said gelatin derivative and thereafter coating the resulting product on said support to provide said recording sheet.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
190 words
The process for forming a recording sheet comprising a support having thereon a color developer layer containing (1) a metal compound of an aromatic carboxylic acid which is the reaction product of an alkali metal salt of an aromatic carboxylic acid and a water soluble metal salt wherein the metal is selected from the group consisting of a metal of Group 1B of the Periodic Table, a metal of Group IIA, a metal of Group IIB, a metal of Group IIIB, a metal of Group IVA, a metal of Group VIA, a metal of Group VIIB or a metal of Group VIII and (2) at least one of gelatin or a gelatin derivative formed by reacting gelatin with an aromatic or aliphatic compound, said metal compound of an aromatic carboxylic acid being capable of forming a colored image when reacted with a color former, which process comprises: reacting said alkali metal salt of said aromatic carboxylic acid and said water-soluble metal salt in the presence of at least one of said gelatin or said gelatin derivative and thereafter coating the resulting product on said support to provide said recording sheet.
