Abstract
A desensitizing ink for wet offset printing on the acceptor surface of a chemical duplicating set of superimposed sheets where one of the sets has an electrophilic acceptor coating and the other a nucleophilic coating for producing a chromogenic reaction wherein the nucleophilic desensitizing ink contains an alkoxylated nucleophilic compound which permits a continuous ink transfer to the water repellant zones of the wetted impression plate of an offset press and simultaneously neutralizes the corresponding zones of the acceptor surface.
Claims7
A process of desensitizing an acceptor surface of a chemical duplicating set having at least two superimposed sheets one of the facing surfaces of which has an electrophillic acceptor coating and the other a nucleophilic coating capable of producing a chromogenic reaction with the electrophillic acceptor coating, said process comprising printing in wet offset on said acceptor surface an ink coating comprising an alkoxylated nucleophilic compound wherein said compound is alkoxylated to a degree such that the hydrophile-lipophile balance of said ink is from 2 to 9 so as to permit both the continuous transfer of the ink from the inking rollers to the water repellant zones of the wetted impression plate of an offset press and simultaneously the neutralization of the corresponding zones of the acceptor surface of the duplicating set, thus prevent any colored formation in the said zones upon subsequent writing or typing on the said duplicating set.
