Abstract
Abstract Coating methods and compositions for products and transfer media, such as carbon papers, in which the major constituent is a filler such as clay, titanium dioxide, calcium carbonate, or the like. The filler replaces a substantial amount of, and extends, the wax or wax-like material which ordinarily forms the principal part of a transfer coating, while providing improved transfer characteristics. The coating is prepared as a dispersion of the filler or extender, with wax or a wax-like material and colorant, in a low viscosity medium such as water. The coating can thereafter be applied to a substrate to provide a desired product by using suitable equipment, such as a trailing blade coater, which may be incorporated into a paper making machine or used separately.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim
118 words
A coating composition comprising a non-soluble aqueous dispersion of: (1) an inorganic filler material; (2) carbon black colorant present in the range from about 5% to about 35% of the amount of said filler; and (3) a wax or wax-like material selected from the group consisting of carnauba, palm, condelilla, esparto, sugar cane, ouricury, montan, ozocerite, paraffin, and microcrystalline waxes, and metallic salts of fatty acids of at least eleven carbon atoms; in which the filler is substituted for a portion of the wax or wax-like material and colorant without impairing the transfer quality of the composition; said wax or wax-like material being in the range from about 10% to about 40% of the amount of said filler.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
118 words
A coating composition comprising a non-soluble aqueous dispersion of: (1) an inorganic filler material; (2) carbon black colorant present in the range from about 5% to about 35% of the amount of said filler; and (3) a wax or wax-like material selected from the group consisting of carnauba, palm, condelilla, esparto, sugar cane, ouricury, montan, ozocerite, paraffin, and microcrystalline waxes, and metallic salts of fatty acids of at least eleven carbon atoms; in which the filler is substituted for a portion of the wax or wax-like material and colorant without impairing the transfer quality of the composition; said wax or wax-like material being in the range from about 10% to about 40% of the amount of said filler.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
38 words
A coating composition in accordance with claim 1 wherein said nonsoluble dispersion includes: (1) 100 parts of said inorganic filler material; (2) 16 parts of said carbon black colorant; (3) 20 parts of said wax or wax-like material.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
16 words
A coating composition in accordance with claim 1 wherein said carbon black is dispersible in water.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
18 words
A coating composition in accordance with claim 1 wherein said carbon black is accompanied by a dispersal agent.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
18 words
A coating composition as defined in claim 1 wherein a dispersal agent is included as tetra sodium pyrophosphate.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
18 words
A coating composition in accordance with claim 1 wherein said inorganic filler is ground or synthesized by precipitation.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
18 words
A coating composition in accordance with claim 1 wherein said inorganic filler is accompanied by a dispersal agent.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
16 words
A coating composition in accordance with claim 1 wherein a dispersal agent is included as trisodiumphosphate.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
18 words
A coating composition in accordance with claim 1 wherein said wax is in the form of an emulsion.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
22 words
A coating composition in accordance with claim 1 wherein an emulsion is produced using an emulsifier of oleic acid and triethanol amine.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
20 words
A coating composition as defined in claim 1 wherein said inorganic filler material includes clay, titanium dioxide, and calcium carbonate.
