  • Another object of the invention is to form the design in a light sensitive coating applied to the object in separate layers,- the-underlayer of-said coating being free from. coloring matter andthe overlayer thereof containingcololfingmatter.
  • Another object of the invention is to have the' light sensitive material of a character normally soluble in a suitable solvent, such as water, but which,. upon exposure to light,'is hardened and insolubilized so that the portions which have not been exposed to the .light in formingthe design can be readily removed by. the solvent, leaving the hardened'and insolubilized design portions' intact.
  • a suitable solvent such as water
  • a further object, of the invention is to provide a Generally described, the invention pertains to fired photographically decorated objects, glazed or unglazed, in which the decoration is formed in light sensitive coating material, said coating being in separately applied layers with the overlayer containing coloring material and the underlayer being free from coloring material.
  • the multiple layer light sensitive coating prevents objectionable colored background and sets oif the decoration design in sharp well-defined outline.
  • numeral 10 denotes generally an unglazed ceramic biscuit or bisque.
  • the biscuit is preferably thoroughly heated to a temperature of about 200 F. in any suitable way, such as in oven 11 shown in Fig. 1.
  • the ceramic biscuit is porous, it, or the surface to be decor'ated, is coated with a sealing composition 12, which preferably will not be absorbed into the biscuit, and is applied upon the upper surface of the object in any suitable manner, such as by spraying, to provide a smooth base surface for. a subsequently applied light sensitive coatingwithout absorption of said light sensitive coating into the biscuit.
  • the sealer is preferably dyed to give it some color for enabling the operator to determine and regulate the degree or amount of sealer to be applied. No sealer, of course, is necessary if the article to be decorated is not of ,a porous absorbent character, such as when the article has been already glazed previously to being decorated.
  • Any suitable sealing material can be used, it being such to be burned oif during the subsequent firing of the decorated object, or .of the decorated design applied thereto, without leaving any appreciable residue, and will not affect the subsequently appliedlight sensitive coating'and any glaze for the decorative design.
  • the sealing material maybe of ahydrophilicor hydrophobic nature, depending whether or not it, or a portion thereof, is to be washed off and removed prior to the subsequent firing.

  • Distilled water cc 40 Resin obtained by the condensation of urea-aldehyde, containing about 15% solid urea cc 4-0 Ammoniumdichromate15% solution cc l0 Albusol cc 0.5 Copper bromide 10% solution cc 0.5
  • hydrophilic light sensitive emulsion materials are the typewhich canbe developed with water of varying temperature. This means that when exposedto a light source through a photographic negative or positive, the light will act upon the exposed portion of the light sensitive material to harden or water-insolubilize i-tthereby'permitting the non-exposed portions thereofwhich are not hardened or insolubilized to be dissolved and removed by the application of Water'of'varying degrees of temperature. Because of manufacturing economics, the hydrophilic light sensitive emulsions are preferred to hydrophobic ones in carrying out this invention.

  • flux refers to a fritted glass ground to a very fine mesh. Different fluxes will have various melting temperatures, thus, for application to glass a flux which would mature at approximately 1000 to 1200 F. would be used; for application to glazed pottery a flux maturing at approximately 1200 to 1400 F. would be used. If porcelain-enamel is to be decorated, a flux maturing at approximately 1350 to 1500" F. would be used.
  • the non-exposed soluble portions may be washed away leaving only the exposed portions and 1600.
  • the base member 10 is then fired at a temperature which will mature the particular flux utilized in coating 1600. When the flux matures, it will bond itself to the surface of member 10, thereby imprisoning the pigment particles in place. It will be understood that the firing operation will carbonize the intermediate bichromated coating 140 and those portions of the pigmented bichromated coating containing the flux 1600 whereby the finished product will contain a deposit of pigment and -fiux 340 which will be permanently bonded to the object.
  • a pure ceramic pigment may be utilized in the bichromated coating 216 rather than a fluxed pigment, since porcelain is generally covered with a glaze before firing.
  • novel effects may be obtained in those instances wherein a fluxed pigment is utilized which has a lower melting point than the glaze for under glaze work.
  • Other novel effects may be obtained by heightening the sealer coat in such a manner as to allow the pigment to spread incident to firing.
