Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
64 words
A heat-sensitive recording material comprising a base sheet and a heat-sensitive record layer formed over the base sheet and containing a color forming material and a color developing material which undergoes a color forming reaction on contact with the color forming material, the heat-sensitive recording material being characterized in that a resin layer containing a cationic-modified starch is formed over the heat-sensitive record layer.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
64 words
A heat-sensitive recording material comprising a base sheet and a heat-sensitive record layer formed over the base sheet and containing a color forming material and a color developing material which undergoes a color forming reaction on contact with the color forming material, the heat-sensitive recording material being characterized in that a resin layer containing a cationic-modified starch is formed over the heat-sensitive record layer.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
58 words
A heat-sensitive recording material as defined in claim 1 wherein the cationic-modified starch is one which is prepared by modifying starch with a primary, secondary or tertiary amine, or quaternary ammonium, and which is capable of producing a uniform and smooth layer when applied to the heat-sensitive record layer in the form of an aqueous solution and dried.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
102 words
A heat-sensitive recording material as defined in claim 1 wherein the cationic-modified starch is one prepared by modifying starch with ethylene imine, halogenated alkylamine represented by the formula ##STR5## wherein R 1 and R 2 are each hydrogen atom or alkyl having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, X is halogen atom and n is an integer of 1 to 3, or epoxyalkyltrialkyl ammonium salt represented by the formula ##STR6## wherein R 3 , R 4 and R 5 are each alkyl having 1 to 5 carbon atoms or benzyl, X is halogen atom, and m is an integer of 1 or 2.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
24 words
A heat-sensitive recording material as defined in claim 1 wherein the cationic-modified starch has a degree of substitution of about 0.005 to about 0.10.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
55 words
A heat-sensitive recording material as defined in claim 1 wherein the cationic-modified starch is one prepared by modifying starch with halogenated alkylamine represented by the formula ##STR7## wherein R 1a and R 2a are each alkyl having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, X is halogen atom, and n is an integer of 1 to 3.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
58 words
A heat-sensitive recording material as defined in claim 1 wherein the cationic-modified starch is one prepared by modifying starch with epoxyalkyltrialkylammonium salt represented by the formula ##STR8## wherein R 3a , R 4a and R 5a are each alkyl having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, X is halogen atom, and m is an integer of 1 or 2.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
17 words
A heat-sensitive recording material as defined in claim 1 wherein the resin layer further contains a pigment.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
19 words
A heat-sensitive recording material as defined in claim 1 wherein the resin layer further contains a cross linking agent.
