Abstract

Method, apparatus and product are provided for absorp­ tion of a dye pattern on and below the surface of a plastic article including webs wherein one or more disposed dyes are applied to the surface of the article in a desired pattern. Sufficient subliming energy by application of heat or applica­ tion of radio frequency waves to the dye deposited or printed surface of the plastic article, sufficient to heat the dyes to a sublimation temperature therefor causes the dyes and dye pattern to sublime on and below the surface of the plastic article.
Also provided is a method for laminating or fusing the reverse side of the plastic article to a substrate during the dye sublimation process.
Also provided is a method for thermoforming the plastic article during or after the dye sublimation process.
Further provided is a decorated plastic article having a substantially non-porous surface penetrated with dispersed dyes therein in a pattern, said pattern being durable against weathering. The article can be of thermoplastic or thermo-set plastic.
