Recording paper and label paper using the same
An object of the present invention is to provide recording paper and label paper with excellent waterproof properties, reduced curling from heat when used as recording paper in a heat-fixing type electrophotographic printer, a heat-fixing type electrophotographic copier or a direct heat-sensitive printer, excellent paper delivery properties, and capable of providing continuous printing of multiple sheets. A further object of the invention is to provide recording paper and label paper with excellent waterproof properties as the base materials of masking seals and re-covering-preventing labels, and requiring no special process to start peeling. The present invention provides recording paper comprising resin film (A) containing a thermoplastic resin, and at least one of inorganic fine powder and an organic filler, wherein the heat of crystallization is 60 J/cm 3 or lower, and label paper using the same.

2. The recording film or laminate as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said resin film (A) comprises from 35 to 97 wt % of a thermoplastic resin and from 65 to 3 wt % of at least one of an inorganic fine powder and an organic filler.
3. The recording film or laminate as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the height of curl of the four corners of A-4 size (210 mm×297 mm) paper after two minutes or more from printing with a heat-fixing type electrophotographic printer or a heat-fixing type electrophotographic copier is 50 mm or less on average.
4. The recording film or laminate as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the height of curl of the four corners of A-4 size (210mm×297 mm) paper after two minutes or more from printing with a direct heat-sensitive printer is 50 mm or less on average.
5. The recording film or laminate as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the thermoplastic resin is selected from the group consisting of a crystalline resin, an amorphous resin, an elastomer and mixtures thereof.
6. The recording film or laminate as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the thermoplastic resin is a mixture of a crystalline resin and an amorphous resin, or a mixture of a crystalline resin and an elastomer.
7. The recording film or laminate as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the crystalline resin is an olefin resin.
8. The recording film or laminate as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the olefin resin is a propylene resin.
9. The recording film or laminate as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the amorphous resin is selected from the group consisting of terpene resins, carboxylic acid vinyl ester resins, acrylic esters, methacrylic esters, petroleum resins and mixtures thereof.
10. The recording film or laminate as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the elastomer is selected from the group consisting of thermoplastic styrene elastomers, thermoplastic olefin elastomers, thermoplastic urethane elastomer, thermoplastic ester elastomers and mixtures thereof.
11. The recording film or laminate as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said resin film (A) has a multilayer structure.
12. The recording film or laminate as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said resin film (A) is at least uniaxially stretched.
13. The recording film or laminate as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the porosity of said resin film (A) is 75% or less.
14. The recording film or laminate as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a thermoplastic film.
15. The recording film or laminate as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least one side of said resin film (A) is subjected to oxidation treatment and/or provided with an image-receiving layer (B).
16. The recording film or laminate as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a layer (C) capable of layer-from-layer peeling having a peeling strength of from 5 to 150 g/cm width is provided on resin film (A).
17. The recording film or laminate as claimed in claim 16 , wherein said layer (C) capable of layer-from-layer peeling is provided according to a coating process.
18. The recording film or laminate as claimed in claim 16 , wherein a surface layer (D) having a breaking strength of 500 g/cm width or less is provided on the surface of layer (C) capable of layer-from-layer peeling.
19. The recording paper film or laminate as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said recording paper film or laminate has a electrostatic capacity of 5 pF/cm 2 or more.
20. A label paper, comprising:
the recording film or laminate as claimed in claim 1 , which is laminated with a strippable paper (F) through an adhesive layer (E).
21. A recording substance, comprising:
the label paper as claimed in claim 20 .
22. A method of effective printing, comprising:
recording on the lable paper as claimed in claim 20 , with: a heat-fixing type electrophotographic printer, a heat fixing the electrophotographic copier; or a direct heat-sensitive printer.
23. A recording substance, comprising:
the recording film or laminate as claimed in claim 1 .
24. A method of effective printing, comprising:
recording on recording film or laminate as claimed in claim 1 with: a heat-fixing type electrophotographic printer; a heat-fixing type electrophotographic copier; or a direct heat-sensitive printer.
