Field of the Invention The present invention relates generally to improved, negative-working, copying materials and to coating compositions useful in the preparation thereof. More particularly, the invention relates to a copying material comprising a paper or film substrate having coated thereon an amine-free layer comprising a cyclic acetal of furfural, a photosensitive lower haloalkane, a resinous binder and silica. The copying materials are negative-working and images are formed thereon by exposure to ultraviolet light and fixed by subsequent heatmg.
2. Description of the Prior Art Copying materials, as that term is commonly used, refers to any one of any products useful in the reproduction of graphic originals. On the basis of the type of copy obtained, these materials are either positiveworking or negative-working. With the positive working materials, a print which is the exact duplicate of the original being reproduced is obtained. With the negative-working materials, however, the print obtained is the opposite of the original, i.e., the non-image, or clear, areas of the original will appear as the imaged portions of the copy and the imaged, or printed, areas of the original will not appear on the copy.
The most widely used negative-working copying materials are those employing silver halides. These materials, in addition to being expensive, generally require complex equipment and lengthy processing operations for development of the images. Many attempts have been made to produce negative-working, non-silver halide, copying materials, but none of those which have been developed and are reported in the literature have achieved significant commercial success due to a number of limitations which are inherent in these materials also. i
Several negative-working imaging systems have been proposed in which a photosensitive haloalkane, such as iodoform, which is known to release hydrogen iodide (HI) when exposed to light, is combined with a compound containing a furan ring. See, for example U.S. Pat. Nos. 1,587,269; 1,587,272; 1,587,273 and 1,587,274 issued to Beebe and U.S. Pat. No. 3,394,391 issued to Wiswell, No. 3,394,392 issued to Matter and No. 3,394,394 and No. 3,394,395 both of which were issued to Mattor et al. Limitations of these systems which have restricted their use include, for example, (a) the presence of impurities in the coatings resulting in discoloration of the non-image areas of the copies produced, (b) the high temperatures required to fix the images resulting in a softening and distortion of the imaged material, (c) the use of amines which have a tendency to migrate away from the photosensitive layer during storage of the materials and (d) residual haloalkane in the imaged and fixed materials resulting in discoloration of the imaged materials.
It is also known that silica can be employed in copying materials as a toothing agent to make the materials receptive to pencil and ink lines. See, for example, U.S. Pat. No. 2,999,016 issued to Beeber et al., U.S. Pat. No. 3,447,947 issued to Abbott et al., U.S. Pat. No.
2,964,423 issued to Van Stappen, and U.S. Pat. No. 3,547,644 issued to Moede et al.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In accordance with the present invention, improved, negative-working, copying materials are prepared comprising a paper or film substrate having coated thereon an amine-free layer comprising a cyclic acetal of furfural, a photosensitive lower haloalkane, a resinous binder and silica. Images are formed on said copying materials by exposure to ultraviolet light and fixed by subsequent heating.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS According to the present invention, improved negative-working copying materials are prepared by coating a paper or film substrate with an amine-free formulation comprising a cyclic acetal of furfural, a photosensitive lower haloalkane, a resinous binder and silica. It has been found that the inclusion of silica in the copying materials of the present invention results in an improved material which does not soften upon exposure to heat, does not become distorted upon exposure to high temperatures, and allows the photosensitive lower haloalkane present to be removed from the non-image areas faster and at lower temperatures. These improvements are achieved without adversely affecting the other properties of the copying materials.
Substrates useful in preparing copying materials in accordance with the present invention may be either paper or film. Preferred bases include paper, cellulose acetate films and polyester films which have been treated with a suitable subbing layer including, for example, cellulose acetate butyrate.
The coating formulation is prepared by dissolving the soluble components in an organic solvent such as,for example, acetone, toluene, methylethyl ketone and tetrahydrofuran.
' As described in the patent application entitled Copying Material, and Method for Preparation and Use Thereof" filed concurrently herewith by Edward Zarebski preferred resinous binders for use in the copying materials of the present invention are polyvinyl chloride homopolymers. As pointed out in that application, these polymers are soluble in conventional, nontoxic solvents and result in copying materials which have a reduced tendency to soften when heated, remain clear and colorless in the non-image areas during the light exposure and heat fixing steps, and allow iodoform, or other haloalkane, to pass from the copying material during the fixing step. A cyclic acetal of furfural is also required. While some of the prior art systems have employed other types of compounds containing a furan ring, it has been found that only the cyclic acetals of furfural can be employed in the copy materials of this invention. Other compounds, such as those containing basic nitrogen groups result in problems such as poor image density, discolored background or nonimage areas and poor aging characteristics of the coated, unimaged materials. Cyclic acetals useful in carrying out the present invention include, but are not limited to, the following:
difurfurylidene pentaerythritol 2-( 2-furyl)-l,3 dioxane III O NO:

0.50 moles of the corresponding diol and L0 grams of paratoluenesulfonic acid are dissolved in 150 cc of tetrahydrofuran and the resulting solution is placed in a 1,000 cc 4-necked flask equipped with stirring apparatus, an addition funnel, a dean-stark trap and a thermometer. I50 cc of pentane are added and the reaction mixture is heated to reflux and 0.50 moles of furfural (1.0 moles when the diol is pentaerythritol) are added dropwise through the additional funnel. After the addition of the furfural is complete, the reaction mixture is allowed to reflux until no more water is evolved. The

Useful compounds include, for example, pentabromomethane and iodoform. In preparing copying materials in accordance with the present invention it is especially preferred to employ iodoform as the photosensitive lower haloalkane.
The silica which can be employed in carrying out the present invention includes any of those currently available. These include, for example, OK-4l2 available from DeGussa, lnc., Kearny, New Jersey and Sl'- 2, HS-5, HS-7 and Silanox No. I, all of which are available from Cabot Corporation, Boston, Mass. The amount of silica employed is preferably equal to up to about 5% by weight based on the weight of the coating formulation.
After the photosensitive lower haloalkane, resinous binder, and cyclic acetal of furfural are dissolved in the organic solvent, the silica is added to the formulation. it is especially preferred to add the silica in a form such that it will be completely dispersed. For this reason it is preferred to subject the silica to a mechanical treatment, such as in a ball mill, to reduce its particle size prior to addition to the coating formulation.
The coating formulation is applied to the substrate by conventional coating methods. These are well-known in the art and include, for example, bead-coating, reverse roll, between-the-roll coating and spray coating.
Negative-working copying materials prepared in accordance with the present invention can be imaged by exposing, beneath a partially opaque master, to ultraviolet light in the range of from about 3,000 Angstroms to about 5,000 Angstroms. It is especially preferred to employ a light source having an output in the range of from about 3,300 Angstroms to about 4,500 Angstroms. The light exposure results in the formation of an image in the light-struck areas of the copy material i.e., those areas corresponding to the non-image areas of the master. After exposure the print is fixed by heating. it is especially preferred to heat the copy material to a temperature of from about l40 C to about C for approximately two minutes. The effect of the heating is to remove the photosensitive lower haloalkane from the background, or non-image areas of the print and to develop, or fix, the image formed upon exposure to light.
Copying materials prepared in accordance with the present invention are useful in the reproduction of graphic originals such as microfilm, microfiche and engineering drawings. In order to describe the present inshould not be interpreted as a limitation on the concept of this invention.
