Description

Detailed Description of the Invention (a) Purpose of the Invention [Field of Industrial Application] This invention relates to sublimation transfer paper used for sublimation transfer of characters, designs, etc.

[Prior Art] Sublimation transfer is one method for drawing and expressing characters, designs, etc.

In this sublimation transfer, characters and designs are expressed on a base material such as paper using paint or ink containing Gastrointestinal Dye 1, and this transfer paper is used to transfer objects such as fabrics, resin molded products, films, etc. Lay it on your body, heat it, and pressurize it.

The sublimable dye 1 contained in the paint or ink that expresses the characters and designs on the base material is sublimated by heating and transferred onto the object to be transferred, so that the characters and designs are transferred and expressed.

However, in sublimation transfer, where the pattern expression surface of the transfer paper and the object to be transferred are brought into close contact when the transfer paper and the object to be transferred are simply put together, the pattern on the transfer paper is reversed. Since the left and right sides are reversed and transferred and expressed on the object, it is difficult to confirm the transferred design on the finished object from the pattern on the transfer paper, especially when it comes to transfer paper. When used as a teaching tool or hobby item for infants and children, it is extremely inconvenient to handle.

Therefore, so-called normal transfer paper may be used.

In the case of direct transfer paper, the sublimated bamboo dye 1 contained in the pattern on the base material evaporates, passes through the base material itself, and is transferred to the transferred object that is in close contact with the back side. It is easy to confirm the transferred design because the pattern exactly as shown on the transferred object is expressed on the transferred object using the transfer paper.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, as mentioned above, in the case of direct transfer paper, the vaporized sublimable dye permeates through the back side of the substrate itself, so it is difficult to achieve high permeability to the vaporized sublimable dye. In addition to being essential, it is also necessary to satisfy various adaptation requirements, and the range of material selection becomes extremely narrow. In addition, in connection with the fact that the above-mentioned base material is required to have high permeability to the vaporized sublimable dye, it is desirable that such a base material be extremely thin. The base material has a low rigidity and is inconvenient to handle when printing transferred designs, especially when printing such transferred designs on printers for information devices such as typewriters and word processors. Even if you try to draw on such paper, it is impossible to use such weak paper in sheet-fed printing presses or various printers.

Because of this, it is difficult to draw with sublimation ink or back-based ink! ii) It is desired to develop an arc for sublimation transfer that has the aptitudes necessary for direct transfer such as aptitude and high transparency, and that can be applied not only to kittens but also to drawing on sheet-fed printing machines and various printers. .

This invention was made in view of the circumstances as described in section 2, and it completely satisfies the conditions necessary for front transfer, and is suitable for rigidity and other sheet-fed printing, as well as for various printers. ]
The purpose of the present invention is to provide an inexpensive transfer paper that reliably retains the transfer paper.

(b) Means for solving problems in the structure of the invention] Corresponding to this purpose, the composite paper for sublimation transfer of the present invention has a surface material that is vaporizable but permeable to surface dyes. It is characterized by being integrated into.

Hereinafter, details of the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings showing one embodiment.

In FIG. 1, -C, 1 is composite paper. Composite paper 1 is one in which a surface layer material 2 is integrated with a backing material 4.

As a method of integration, the surface layer material 2 is releasably attached to the backing material 4 using a paper stapler or the like, or the surface layer material 2 is releasably attached to the backing material 4 using an adhesive 3.

The surface layer material 2 carries a transferred pattern and allows the vaporized symphonic dye to pass therethrough. This front@Month 2 is composed of a material that satisfies smoothness, retention of sublimation ink and sublimation paint, suitability for drawing with back surface ink and sublimation@tool, suitability for printing, and suitability for printers. In addition, surface material 2
is 5 seconds or less, preferably 1 second or less (JISP81
It is made of a material that has high permeability to vaporized sublimable dye (according to the air permeability test method). The thickness is preferably 80μ or less, particularly preferably 55μ or less. Such surface layer material 2 is commercially available, such as Japanese paper, gauze,
It can be made of non-woven fabric, synthetic paper such as vinylon paper or rayon paper, thin paper, or composite material such as film or film and paper.

The adhesive 3 is applied to the backing material 4'', and is used to overlay and releasably bond the surface layer material 2 on the backing material 4. The surface material 2 is adhered to the backing material 4 until the drawing on the surface material 2 is completed, and when the surface material 2 is peeled off from the backing material 4 during transfer, it is easily removed. (Therefore, the adhesion between the surface layer material 2 and the backing material 4 by the adhesive 3 must have a relatively weak adhesive force. Such a weak adhesive state
An ordinary adhesive intended for permanent adhesion may be applied very thinly onto the backing material 4, or an adhesive, adhesive, or paint that is naturally removable may be used. Vinyl acetate emulsion adhesives and other commercially available adhesives can be used as such ordinary adhesives, and wax emulsion adhesives and other commercially available adhesives can also be used as adhesives with peeling properties. adhesive can be used. In either case, the peel strength between the surface material 2 and the backing material 4 is determined within a range that allows normal users, including children, to peel it off. ° Peeling, peeling speed 100 mm/min, peel strength 0.5 (1 to 20 (+ (preferably 2 g to 10 g))
(value measured by a Hayton surface property measuring device) is desirable. The adhesive 3 can be applied to the surface of the backing material 4 that corresponds to the surface material 2, or it can be applied partially, for example, as shown by the chain line in FIG. 1. It can be applied live, in spots, or in a dotted pattern.

In addition, when applying this composite paper 1 to continuous paper having horizontal perforations 9 used in a word processor etc., the outer marginal punches 7 separated by vertical perforations 6 on both sides of the continuous paper 5 are used. The adhesive may be applied only to the opened side areas 8.

The backing material 4 is made of a material that has strength, thickness, smoothness, and other suitability for use in printing machines and printers, and especially when the composite paper 1 is used as continuous paper, it is suitable for printing and marginal printing. Continuous paper suitability regarding punching, perforation formation, folding, etc. is provided, thereby realizing the main part of the use suitability of the composite paper 1 as a whole and continuous paper suitability. When the backing material 4 is made of a commercially available product, it may be made of high-quality paper (for example, 4x6 size, 37 kg in weight)
~110 KrJ, preferably 45 to 9 to 70 KO) form paper (e.g. 4 x 6 size, 30K a to 110 in consecutive years)
It is possible to use paper that is relatively inexpensive and easily available, such as pure white roll paper, Kura 71 paper, tape base paper, etc.

[Operations] The sublimation transfer composite paper 1 constructed as described above functions as follows in sublimation transfer of designs and the like.

First, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, letters and designs are printed on the surface of the composite paper 1 using sublimation paint or sublimation ink 11 using a printer, a printing machine, or various printers. Draw on the surface 12 of the material 2. The sublimable paints or sublimable inks used here contain fixing agents such as PvA lululose, diatomaceous algae, sublimable dyes, additives, vegetable oil, mineral oil, and other solvents. Examples of sublimable dyes include Kayalon, Kayacera 1 Color (manufactured by Nikki Chemical Co., Ltd.), Sumikalon (manufactured by Sumitomo Chemical Co., Ltd.), Diaceritone, PT Color (manufactured by Mitsubishi Kasei Co., Ltd.), Miketone, and PS Color (manufactured by Sumitomo Chemical Co., Ltd.). It is known that there are products such as those manufactured by Mitsui Toatsu Chemical Co., Ltd.).

Next, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the sea urchin surface material 2 is peeled off from the backing material 4.

Next, as shown in FIG.
is superimposed on the transfer target 14 in a state where it is in close contact with the transfer target 14, and in this state, it is sandwiched between an iron or other heating device 15 and the board 1G and heated at, for example, 200° C. for 45 seconds, and pressure is applied as necessary. Due to this heating, the sublimable dye contained in the ink 11 sublimates and passes through the surface material 2, and the transferred material 1
4, the pattern 17 is printed as shown in FIG.

The pattern 17 transferred here has been transferred in the normal direction, and therefore has the same orientation as the pattern originally drawn on the surface material 2 of the composite paper 1.

(c) Effects of the invention In the composite paper constructed in this way, since the surface layer material is made of a material that is highly permeable to vaporized sublimable dye, the pattern on the surface layer material sublimes. The dye almost completely reaches the object to be transferred without being adsorbed to the surface layer material, thus making it possible to obtain a clear transferred design that is extremely faithful to the original image.

The properties of the composite paper 1 as a whole, such as its strength, are achieved by the backing material, so the composite paper 1 can be used not only for kittens, but also for sheet-fed printing machines and various types of printing machines, and for printing designs. Can be drawn.

The surface material is not required to have such mechanical strength or other suitability for sheet-fed printing machines or printers (nor is it required to suit continuous paper).
It is only necessary to select materials based on their suitability for frontal sublimation transfer, which provides a wide selection range of materials, improves the quality of transferred designs, and reduces costs. Since the stiffness of the composite paper can be arbitrarily adjusted by selecting the backing paper, it is possible to obtain a composite paper that can be used in any printing machine or printer.

As is clear from the above description, the present invention completely satisfies the conditions necessary for downward transfer of the design, and reliably maintains rigidity and other suitability for drawing in sheet-fed printing machines and various printers. , and 1q of inexpensive sublimation transfer paper can be purchased.
