US 4,273,842 A · Process for forming patternwise coated powder layer

Abstract

A patternwise coated powder layer can be formed by a process comprising the steps of coating a photosensitive composition, which contains an aromatic diazonium salt as a photosensitive component and becomes sticky by exposure, onto the surface of a substrate to form a thin layer, subjecting the thin layer to patternwise exposure with actinic radiation to produce stickiness at the exposed area, and then contacting powder particles with the thin layer after exposure to make the thin layer to accept the powder particles according to the powder acceptability of the thin layer. According to this process, for example, the phosphor screen of a color picture tube can simply be produced.

A process for forming a patternwise coated layer on a phosphor screen of a color picture tube, which comprises:

(1) a first step of applying a photosensitive composition containing an aromatic diazonium salt decomposable through exposure to ultraviolet light, whose photolytic product is hygroscopic, to an inside surface of a face plate of the color picture tube as a thin layer,
(2) a second step of exposing the thin layer to ultraviolet light patternwise through a shadow mask, thereby making the exposed parts sticky due to the hygroscopicity of said photolytic product and absorption of moisture by said photolytic product, and then contacting powder particles with the thin layer, whereby the powder particles adhere to said exposed parts, which are sticky, and then removing residual powder particles from the thin layer, and
(3) a third step of fixing the photolytic product resulting from the exposure to the ultraviolet light, thereby firmly binding the powder particles to said exposed parts.

A process for forming a phosphor screen for a color picture tube which comprises:

(1) the first step of coating on the inner surface of the face plate of a color picture tube a photosensitive composition containing an aromatic diazonium salt decomposable through exposure to ultraviolet light, whose photolytic product is hygroscopic, as a photosensitive component to form a thin layer;
(2) the second step of subjecting the position of the thin layer to be coated with the first color phosphor to exposure to ultraviolet light through a shadow mask to produce stickiness at the exposed area;
(3) the third step of contacting the first color phosphor with said thin layer to bind the phosphor onto the exposed area and then removing the excess and unbound phosphor from the surface of the thin layer;
(4) the fourth step of subjecting the position of the thin layer to be coated with the second color phosphor to a second exposure to ultraviolet light through said shadow mask to produce stickiness at the second exposed area;
(5) the fifth step of contacting the second color phosphor with said thin layer to bind the second color phosphor onto the second exposed area and then removing the excess and unbound phosphor from the surface of the thin layer;
(6) the sixth step of subjecting the position of the thin layer to be coated with the third color phosphor to a third exposure to ultraviolet light through said shadow mask to produce stickiness at the third exposed area;
(7) the seventh step of contacting the third color phosphor with said thin layer to bind the third phosphor onto the third exposed area and then removing the excess and unbound phosphor from the surface of the thin layer;
and
(8) the eighth step of fixing the photolytic product resulting from the exposures to the ultraviolet light, thereby firmly binding the powder particles to the exposed parts.
