[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a decorative material for use in surface makeup of buildings and the like, interior and exterior of buildings, furniture and the like. More specifically, the present invention relates to a decorative material that expresses unevenness three-dimensionally due to the difference in surface gloss.
[0002]
[Prior art]
2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a desired pattern such as a wood grain pattern is usually applied to a decorative material for use in surface decoration of a building interior or exterior, a fitting, furniture, or the like. And, not only to express the grain pattern etc. in a plane, but also to make a three-dimensional representation of the unevenness of the surface of the conduit and the like that natural wood has, mainly for applications where a high-class feeling is desired, Widely used.
[0003]
As a technique for expressing a three-dimensional unevenness on the surface of a decorative material in combination with a planar wood grain pattern, various methods have been conventionally devised and are used properly according to the purpose. Typical examples of such methods are listed below.
[0004]
(1) On the surface of the material for decorative material, an embossed plate or emboss roll having an uneven shape obtained by inverting the uneven shape to be applied, an embossed shaping film, etc. are pressure-bonded, and the material for the decorative material is along the uneven shape. A method of mechanically imparting a concavo-convex shape by deforming (Japanese Patent Publication No. 47-18559). It is the most excellent in terms of the reproducibility of the uneven shape, and it can be said that it is the mainstream as a method for applying unevenness to the decorative material. In addition to the method applied to the surface of an already molded cosmetic material, an embossed plate or the like is pressure-bonded to the surface of a curable cosmetic material having fluidity in an uncured state, and at the same time as or after shaping. There is also a method of curing after shaping (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 51-558, Japanese Patent Publication No. 51-44790).
[0005]
(2) An ionizing radiation curable resin layer is formed on the surface of the material for decorative material, and this is partially irradiated with ionizing radiation through a mask film or the like, and an uncured ionizing radiation curable resin in a non-irradiated part is formed. A method of removing the recesses later or forming a recess by utilizing a curing shrinkage phenomenon (Japanese Patent Publication No. 51-40096, Japanese Patent Publication No. 48-4602).
[0006]
(3) A pattern is applied to the surface or bottom surface of the curable resin applied to the surface of the cosmetic material with an ink containing a curing inhibitor or a curing accelerator, and then the curable resin is cured to cure the curing rate. A method in which the resin remaining uncured due to the difference is removed later, or a recess is formed by utilizing a curing shrinkage phenomenon (Japanese Patent Laid-Open Nos. 53-120780 and 46-36479).
[0007]
(4) A pattern is applied to the surface or bottom of the heat-foamable resin layer with an ink containing a foaming accelerator or a foaming inhibitor, and this is heated and foamed. A method of forming a concavo-convex shape by varying the foaming degree of the heat-foamable resin layer (Japanese Examined Patent Publication Nos. 43-15713 and 43-28636).
[0008]
(5) A method in which a heat-foamable ink is printed in a pattern on the surface of a decorative material and heated to form a convex portion (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 58-92562).
[0009]
(6) A method of printing a colored or non-colored solvent-free or high-solid ink thickly on the surface of a material for a cosmetic material, using a large plate depth gravure printing plate or screen printing plate, etc. (Japanese Patent Publication No. 50-14466).
[0010]
(7) A coating having a property of being repelled by the ink after a pattern of a portion to be a recess is formed on the surface of the material for the decorative material with an ink to which a liquid repellent substance such as a silicone compound or a fluorine compound is added. A method of forming a recess by applying a coating agent on the entire surface and repelling the coating agent on the pattern (Japanese Patent Publication No. 47-16629).
[0011]
Each of the various methods described above is intended to realize a three-dimensional concavo-convex feeling by actually forming the concavo-convex shape to be expressed on the surface of the decorative material. There are many restrictions on the above. For example, in (1), materials that can be used as cosmetic materials are limited to materials with excellent embossability (shapeability and retention), and expensive embossing plates and embossing devices are required. It is also difficult to synchronize the pattern with the uneven pattern. (2)-(5) require special resin, chemical | medical agent, equipment, etc., a manufacturing process is complicated, and productivity is low.
[0012]
Since (6) uses a highly viscous ink, it has problems such as plate clogging and is not suitable for expressing delicate pictures. In (7), a special chemical called a liquid repellent is required, and defects such as a non-repellent residue are likely to occur. In addition, as a problem common to (6) and (7), when the area ratio of the convex portion is large, the amount of ink and paint used for the convex portion is very large, and the physical properties of the concave portion are improved. It can be mentioned that it is difficult.
[0013]
In addition, as a problem common to the methods (1) to (7), since there is an uneven shape on the surface of the decorative material, especially when the area ratio of the recesses is relatively small, such as a wood conduit pattern However, there is a problem in that contaminants attached to the surface of the decorative material easily accumulate in the recesses, and it is difficult to remove the contaminants accumulated in the recesses even if the surface is wiped.
[0014]
In contrast to the various methods described above, instead of actually forming the uneven shape to be expressed on the surface of the decorative material, the illusion of the human eye is made different by changing the gloss state of the surface of the portion to be expressed as the concave portion and the convex portion. There is also a technique for visually expressing the three-dimensional effect of unevenness. That is, even if there is no uneven shape in reality, the relatively high gloss portion is recognized as a convex portion and the low gloss portion as a concave portion to human eyes.
[0015]
Specifically, the above-described method is, for example, by forming a transparent or translucent synthetic resin paint layer having a low gloss on the entire printed surface of a substrate on which an appropriate pattern including a dent pattern is printed, and then the synthetic resin. This is achieved by forming a glossy transparent or translucent synthetic resin coating layer on the surface of the material layer excluding the portion corresponding to the dent pattern (Japanese Patent Publication No. 50-39115). Of course, if the relationship of glossiness is reversed, it is possible to obtain a cosmetic material in which the relationship of the unevenness is reversed.
[0016]
According to this method, it is possible to easily give a three-dimensional unevenness to any substrate simply by preparing two kinds of paints having different gloss without the need for special chemicals. it can. In addition, the formation of paint layers with different gloss can be performed by conventional printing methods such as gravure printing, following the formation of the pattern, so there is no need for special equipment, high production efficiency, and synchronization with the pattern. Easy. In addition, the thickness of the paint layer can be much thinner compared to the height difference of the unevenness to be expressed, so that the amount of resin used can be saved, and it is also advantageous in terms of flexibility, making it suitable for bending processing. Excellent cosmetics can be easily realized. Moreover, since there is no excessive unevenness | corrugation on the surface of a decorative material, there also exists an advantage that a contaminant does not accumulate in a recessed part.
[0017]
In view of the many advantages, cosmetic materials that employ this method have already been used in large quantities, but in reality, they have not yet surpassed the various methods described above in terms of luxury. . Considering the reason, for example, according to the machine embossing method of (1), it is possible to faithfully reproduce the uneven shape of a natural wood conduit or the like including its cross-sectional shape. On the other hand, in this method using two kinds of paints having different glosses, there are two kinds of surface gloss stages, and therefore two kinds of unevenness stages that can be expressed. Therefore, there is a problem that it is not possible to express an uneven shape having a slope portion whose depth (height) continuously changes, such as a natural wood conduit.
[0018]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The present invention has been made in order to solve such problems, and the object of the present invention is to provide a natural material such as a conduit for natural wood in a decorative material that expresses a concavo-convex shape by a difference in surface gloss. In addition, the object is to obtain a decorative material that expresses an uneven shape whose depth (height) is continuously changed.
[0019]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a base pattern and a pattern corresponding to the concave or convex expression area on the substrate, and the pattern corresponding to the concave or convex expression area is exposed on the surface, A gloss adjusting agent is added to the pattern corresponding to the concave or convex expression area, and a gloss different from the pattern corresponding to the concave or convex expression area is formed on the surface of the portion other than the pattern corresponding to the concave or convex expression area. There is provided a decorative material provided with a gloss adjusting layer having a gradual gradation in the gloss state in the vicinity of the contour of the region. Alternatively, a base pattern, a pattern corresponding to the concave or convex expression area, and a second gloss adjustment layer are provided on the base material, and the second gloss adjustment layer is provided on the surface of a portion other than the pattern corresponding to the concave or convex expression area. A decorative material provided with a gloss adjustment layer having a gloss different from that of the cosmetic material, wherein the gloss adjustment layer has a gradation in a glossy state in the vicinity of the contour of the region I will provide a.
[0020]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

In this decorative material, a pattern 3 composed of a base pattern 31 and a pattern 32 corresponding to the concave or convex expression region 2 is formed on the base material 1 for decorative material. Is provided with a gloss adjusting layer 4 having a gloss different from that of the surface of the concave or convex portion expressing area 2, and the gloss adjusting layer 4 has an outline of the concave or convex expressing area 2. In the vicinity of, gradation is provided in the glossy state. In the present invention, the “recess or protrusion expression region” means a region to be expressed as a recess or protrusion in comparison with other portions (portions where the gloss adjusting layer 4 is provided).
[0021]
As the base material 1, various materials can be used according to the intended application as conventionally known. Specifically, for example, paper such as thin paper, titanium paper, resin-impregnated paper, flame retardant paper, inorganic paper, woven or non-woven fabric made of natural fiber or synthetic fiber, polyolefin resin, polyester resin, acrylic resin , Synthetic resin base materials such as styrene resin, polyamide resin, fiber resin, polycarbonate resin, polyvinyl chloride resin, polyvinylidene chloride resin, fluorine resin, wood veneer, veneer, plywood, laminated material, particle Wood base materials such as boards, medium density fiber boards, gypsum boards, cement boards, calcium silicate boards, inorganic boards such as ceramic boards, metal bases such as iron, copper, aluminum, stainless steel, etc. Conventionally known arbitrary materials such as composites and laminates can be used, and the shape thereof is not limited at all, for example, a film shape or a sheet shape, a plate shape, or an odd-shaped molded body.
[0022]
There are no particular restrictions on the constituent material of the pattern 3, but generally a printing ink or coating obtained by dissolving or dispersing a colorant such as a dye or pigment in a suitable solvent together with a suitable binder resin. Material is used.
[0023]
Examples of the colorant include inorganic pigments such as carbon black, titanium white, zinc white, petal, yellow lead, bitumen, cadmium red, azo pigments, lake pigments, anthraquinone pigments, phthalocyanine pigments, isoindolinone pigments, dioxazines.

[0026]
In addition, various additives such as extender pigments, plasticizers, dispersants, surfactants, tackifiers, adhesion aids, drying agents, curing agents, curing accelerators or curing retarders are used as necessary. The
[0027]
The pattern 3 needs to include at least a pattern 32 corresponding to the concave or convex expression area 2. On the other hand, the base pattern 31 is not essential, but can be provided for the purpose of giving a design that is visible as a color pattern independent of the surface irregularities to a portion other than the concave portion or the convex portion expression region 2. For example, in the case of a wood grain pattern, as is well known, it is usually printed by separating into a solid ground, wood grain pattern, conduit pattern, etc., among which the ground solid and wood grain pattern are used in the cosmetic material of the present invention. The conduit pattern is provided as a pattern 32 corresponding to the concave or convex expression area 2. Of course, in the present invention, the pattern 3 is not limited to the wood grain pattern, and can be appropriately applied to a stone pattern, an abstract pattern, and the like.
[0028]
In FIG. 1, the pattern 32 corresponding to the concave or convex expression area 2 is described as being provided on the surface of the base pattern 31, but this necessarily defines the vertical relationship between the two. However, if the both may be provided as a continuous pattern on the same surface, the vertical relationship may be reversed, or a transparent layer (the transparent substrate 1 may be provided) between the two. ) Or the like may be interposed. Further, all or part of the pattern 3 may be integrated with the base material 1 by mixing or infiltrating the colorant into the base material 1. In short, it is only necessary that the pattern 32 corresponding to the concave or convex expression region 2 and the base pattern 31 can be distinguished in color when observed from the surface side of the decorative material.
[0029]
Further, the contour of the pattern 32 corresponding to the concave or convex expression area 2 is not necessarily exactly the same as the contour of the area 2 and is slightly shifted inward or outward from the contour of the area 2. May be. On the contrary, the apparent unevenness can be appropriately adjusted by positively shifting the contours of the two slightly. In addition, by changing the direction and distance of the deviation between the two contours depending on the location in the region 2, it is possible to change the apparent unevenness depending on the location.
[0030]
The formation method of the pattern 3 is most commonly performed by an appropriate printing method such as a gravure printing method, an offset printing method, a screen printing method, an electrostatic printing method, or an ink jet printing method, but is not limited thereto. Instead, for example, the above-described solid substrate may be formed by a coating method such as a roll coating method, a knife coating method, or a die coating method, and other patterns can be formed by any conventionally known image forming method.
[0031]
As the constituent material of the gloss adjusting layer 4, the same printing inks or coating agents as those mentioned as the constituent material of the pattern 3 described above can be used. However, since the gloss adjusting layer 4 needs to have at least transparency that allows the pattern 3 to be seen through, the printing ink or coating agent forming the gloss does not contain any colorant such as dye or pigment. Or it is necessary to use what contains only a small amount to such an extent that the required transparency is not impaired. Further, since the gloss adjusting layer 4 constitutes the outermost surface layer of the decorative material, it should have surface properties such as abrasion resistance, scratch resistance, solvent resistance, and contamination resistance necessary for the decorative material. It is preferable to use a material mainly composed of a curable resin. Specifically, for example, thermosetting resins such as melamine resins, epoxy resins, amino alkyd resins, urethane resins, polyester resins, silicone resins, ionizing radiation curable resins such as acrylic resins, etc. Can be preferably used.
[0032]
Further, the gloss adjustment layer 4 needs to have a gloss different from that of the surface of the concave or convex expression area 2. Specifically, when the concave portion or the convex portion expressing area 2 is to be expressed as a concave portion, the gloss is designed to be higher than the surface of the concave portion or the convex portion expressing area 2, and conversely, the concave portion or the convex portion expressing area 2 is designed. When it is intended to express as a convex portion, it is necessary to design the gloss lower than the surface of the concave portion or the convex portion expressing region 2. In order to appropriately adjust the gloss state of the gloss adjusting layer 4, for example, a gloss adjusting agent such as silica, alumina, calcium carbonate, barium sulfate or the like can be added as appropriate.
[0033]
In the present invention, for the purpose of expressing a continuous depth (height) change due to the change in the gloss state, the gloss adjustment layer 4 has a gloss state in the vicinity of the contour of the concave or convex expression region 2. It is characterized by providing gradation. That is, in the vicinity of the contour of the concave or convex expression area 2, as the gloss state of the gloss adjustment layer 4 proceeds from the contour to the inside, the gloss state close to the gloss state of the surface of the concave or convex expression area 2 It is configured to change continuously or stepwise until reaching the gloss state of the gloss adjusting layer 4 in a portion other than the vicinity of the concave portion or the convex portion expression region 2.
[0034]
More specifically, when the concave or convex expression area 2 is to be expressed as a concave, the gloss adjusting layer 4 is designed to have a higher gloss than the surface of the area 2, and the area 2 In the vicinity of the contour, the gradation adjustment layer 4 is formed with gradation so that the gloss of the gloss adjustment layer 4 gradually increases as it moves away from the contour of the region 2 and goes into the formation portion of the gloss adjustment layer 4. Conversely, when the concave or convex expression region 2 is to be expressed as a convex portion, the gloss adjustment layer 4 is designed to have a lower gloss than the surface of the region 2, and the contour of the region 2 In the vicinity, it is formed with gradation so that the gloss of the gloss adjusting layer 4 gradually decreases as it moves away from the outline of the region 2 and goes into the formation portion of the gloss adjusting layer 4.
[0035]
As means for providing gradation in the gloss state of the gloss adjustment layer 4, a plurality of types of printing inks or coating agents having different gloss conditions can be applied to the portion where the gloss adjustment layer 4 is formed from the vicinity of the contour of the concave or convex expression area 2. A method of printing in order from the lowest glossy state in the direction toward the inside is also conceivable, but the manufacturing process is complicated and registration is difficult, and it is not preferable. For example, it is preferable to employ a method of changing the coating amount of printing ink or coating agent by means such as changing the plate depth or area ratio of the gravure printing plate.
[0036]
The gradation provided in the gloss adjusting layer 4 is a stepwise gradation (FIG. 1) as a change in the gloss state even if the purpose is to express a continuous change in depth (height). In many cases, it is advantageous in terms of the three-dimensional appearance of the unevenness obtained visually. In particular, for example, when the size of the unevenness is very fine, such as a wood conduit groove, the tone of continuous tone is poor, and the three-dimensional feeling of the cross-sectional shape of a natural conduit groove is sufficient. Since there are many cases where it cannot be expressed, it is preferable to use a stepwise gradation.
[0037]
Further, the gradation is not limited to the gradation due to the change in the coating amount, and the gradation can also be expressed by the change in the area ratio such as halftone dots (FIG. 3). A change in area ratio can also be used together (not shown). However, in general, even if the printing plate has a halftone dot design, it is usually continuous somewhat due to the flow of the resin during printing, so these differences are not necessarily essential. In the following, for the sake of simplicity, the description will be made with reference to the stepped diagram as shown in FIG. 1 on the drawing, but this includes all the above-described various gradation expression techniques.
[0038]
In the expression of fine concave or convex parts such as a wood grain conduit, the gradation adjustment layer 4 is naturally finer, and high resolution is required for printing plates and printing inks. Is done. For example, in the case of gravure printing, it is necessary to use a printing plate having a fine screen, and ink or the like is also required to transfer a subtle difference in plate depth or area ratio with good reproducibility. On the other hand, as described above, it is preferable to use a curable resin for the gloss adjusting layer 4 from the viewpoint of surface properties, but a general two-component curable type that is frequently used as a surface coating agent for a cosmetic material. In the case of the resin, the curing reaction proceeds during printing and the viscosity increases, which may cause plate clogging and lower the reproducibility of gradation.
[0039]
Therefore, the resin used for the gloss adjusting layer 4 is preferably selected so that there is no risk of thickening with time during printing. Specifically, it is preferable to use a curable urethane resin using blocked isocyanate as a curing agent. This resin does not increase in viscosity because the curing reaction does not proceed in the coating solution at room temperature during printing, while special curing equipment such as an electron beam or ultraviolet ray irradiation device is required for curing after printing. In addition, the block is released by the heat of the dryer in the drying process, and the curing reaction proceeds rapidly and completely cures. Therefore, even if the printed material is wound or stacked, there is no risk of blocking due to poor drying. There are advantages such as.
[0040]
By the way, when it is going to express the recessed part or the convex part expression area 2 as a recessed part, the surface of the recessed part or the convex part expression area 2 must be in a state with low gloss. For this purpose, as in the example shown in FIG. 1, when the pattern 32 corresponding to the concave or convex expression region 2 is exposed on the surface in the region 2, the printing ink for forming the pattern 32 is used. It is necessary to add a gloss adjusting agent or the like to the low gloss state. On the contrary, when the concave or convex expression region 2 is to be expressed as a convex portion, a printing ink having a high gloss on the surface after printing is used as the printing ink for forming the pattern 3 corresponding to the region 2. Need to use.
[0041]
As another method, as shown in FIG. 4, there is a surface of the concave or convex portion expressing area 2 between the pattern 3 including the pattern 32 corresponding to the concave or convex portion expressing area 2 and the gloss adjusting layer 4. It is also possible to provide the second gloss adjusting layer 5 having the gloss state to be achieved. The material of the second gloss adjusting layer 5 may be the same as or different from that of the gloss adjusting layer 4, but needless to say, the gloss needs to be at least different from that of the gloss adjusting layer 4. That is, when the region 2 is to be expressed as a concave portion, the gloss of the second gloss adjustment layer 5 is designed to be lower than the gloss of the gloss adjustment layer 4, and conversely, What is necessary is just to design the glossiness of the 2nd glossiness adjustment layer 5 higher than the glossiness of the glossiness adjustment layer 4. FIG.
[0042]
Thus, if it is set as the structure which provided the 2nd glossiness adjustment layer 5, it is not necessary to give glossiness adjustment to the printing ink for forming the pattern 32 corresponding to the recessed part or convex part expression area | region 2. FIG. In particular, when the base material 1 having a rough surface such as paper is used and the gloss of the region 2 is desired to be set high, it is easy even if the printing ink for the pattern 32 is not excessively thick. There is an advantage that the gloss of the region can be sufficiently increased. In addition, since the pattern 32 is protected by the second gloss adjusting layer 5, there is an advantage that the surface physical properties of the region 2 are improved. From this point of view, the second gloss adjusting layer 5 is also preferably composed mainly of a curable resin.
[0043]
The second gloss adjusting layer 5 is not necessarily provided on the entire surface, and may be provided only in the concave or convex expression region 2 (FIG. 5). Moreover, it can also provide in the area | region containing the part with the width | variety which exists in the outer side of the outline of a recessed part or the convex part expression area | region 2 (FIG. 6). The latter configuration has an advantage that there is no possibility of unnaturalness in the unevenness even if the registration between the second gloss adjusting layer 5 and the gloss adjusting layer 4 is slightly shifted. Further, the gradation of the gradation portion of the gloss adjustment layer 4 is expressed with the gloss state of the surface of the second gloss adjustment layer 5 as a base (for example, both the surface of the pattern 3 and the gloss adjustment layer 4 have high gloss). When the second gloss adjusting layer 5 has a low gloss, the thin gloss effect of the base second gloss adjusting layer 5 is exerted on the surface of the thin portion of the gloss adjusting layer 4, thereby adjusting the gloss. In the case where the gloss of the surface of the layer 4 is observed to be low), the second gloss adjusting layer 5 has at least the concave or convex expression area 2 and the gloss adjusting layer 4 in the vicinity of the contour of the area 2. It is preferable to provide in the area | region which includes both with the area | region which has a tone.
[0044]
Here, referring again to the positional relationship between the concave or convex expression region 2 and the pattern 32 corresponding to the region 2, only the bottom of the concave or the top of the convex has a color different from that of the other parts. Alternatively, when the convex portion is to be expressed, the pattern 32 is formed to have the same contour as that of the region 2 (FIG. 4), but the bottom surface or the top is also formed on the slope portion of the contour of the concave portion or the convex portion. In the case where a concave portion or a convex portion having the same color as the surface is to be expressed, the pattern 32 is formed in a region outside the region 2 and extending to the contour of the region where the gloss adjusting layer 4 has gradation. It is preferable (FIG. 7). For example, the latter configuration is recommended for the purpose of mimicking a conduit groove in a cross section of natural wood.
[0045]
In addition, when trying to express a concave or convex portion whose color continuously changes in the slope of the contour of the concave or convex portion, the gloss adjusting layer 4 near the contour of the region 2 has gradation. A gradation may be provided in the color of the pattern 32 in the area (FIG. 8). Alternatively, a visually approximate expression effect can also be achieved by positioning the contour of the pattern 32 in the middle of the contour inside and outside the region where the gloss adjusting layer 4 has gradation (FIG. 9). In addition, it is also possible to express a complex concavo-convex shape in which the concavo-convex sensation changes depending on the position by adopting a combination of the above various expression techniques depending on the position.
[0046]
As a specific application example of the present invention, the expression of a conduit groove of natural wood is the most representative as already described many times. Since the conduit groove is physically a concave portion, generally, a configuration is adopted in which the gloss of the surface of the conduit pattern portion is lowered and the gloss adjustment layer 4 having a high gloss is provided on the surface excluding the conduit pattern portion. . However, there are cases in which the actual appearance is more apparent when the luster is reversed with respect to the expression of the tree species in which the color tone of the bark is light and the conduit groove portion is lifted up like some kind of coniferous wood. In addition, due to the reversal of the glossiness, there is a case where an original new conduit expression is obtained without being bound by the existing concept.
[0047]
In the above description, it is implicitly assumed that the gloss state of the gloss adjustment layer 4 in a portion other than the vicinity of the concave or convex expression area 2 is constant. For the purpose of expressing the gloss difference with the material part or the gloss difference depending on the angle between the cut surface and the grain direction, the gloss state of the gloss adjusting layer 4 can be changed in synchronization with the grain pattern. In this way, in combination with the faithful expression of the shape of the conduit groove described above, it is possible to obtain a decorative material that is closer to natural wood and has excellent design properties.

As described above, the decorative material of the present invention is provided with a pattern including a pattern corresponding to the concave or convex expression region on the base material, and the surface of the portion other than the region is different from the surface of the region. In a decorative material provided with a gloss adjusting layer having a gloss, the gloss adjusting layer has a gradation in the gloss state in the vicinity of the contour of the region, so that, for example, a deep groove like a conduit groove in natural wood is used. It is possible to faithfully represent an uneven shape having an inclined surface portion whose height (height) is continuously changed, and an excellent effect is obtained that a decorative material having an excellent design feeling can be obtained.
[0054]
In particular, since the gloss adjusting layer is composed of a curable urethane-based resin using a blocked isocyanate as a curing agent, the curing reaction does not proceed and thicken during printing. Gradation is not disturbed, and it can be completely cured in a short time by heat treatment in a dryer, so there is no need for measures such as adding new equipment or reducing printing speed. It has an excellent effect that it can be manufactured very efficiently by in-line integrated production under almost the same conditions as those of the decorative material.
