Definitions
- a water release type decalcornania has been widely used and consists essentially of a paper carrier or backing having the desired design imprinted thereon in one or more vitrifiable enamel colors.
- the backing paper may be either the slide otf type having a thin layer of a water soluble gum or may be a so-called duplex paper consisting of a layer of thin tissue paper with a water soluble gum coating on one side and releasably adhered at its other side to a heavier paper sheet. In either case, however, soaking with water is necessary to effect release of the transfer design from the backing. After the design has been temporarily adhered to the ceramic article it is necessary to dry the article thoroughly to remove all traces of water after which a high temperature firing operation is employed in the usual manner.
- vitreous decalcomam'as of the water release type have enjoyed widespread commercial use, it is well recognized that they have serious disadvantages arising primarily from the fact that a number of inconvenient and thne-consuming steps are required. Furthermore, the use of water or varnish and the presence of water soluble gum introduces innumerable difiiculties so that the water release type transfers require considerable care and skill in the use thereof and do not lend themselves to high speed machine application.
- a heat release vitreous decalcoman-ia is characterized by the use of a heat releasable backing at one side of the vitreous design and an outer thermoplastic or heat activatable adhesive at the opposite side of the vitreous design.
- the present invention is concerned with improvements in a heat release vitreous decalcomania or transfer of the type just described.
- the article which is quite hot as formed is cooled to a suitable temperature before the application of the decoration and is then reheated to fire the vitreous design.
- This cooling step is particularly necessary in the case where the article is decorated directly by screen printing or by the use of a water release type transfer as previously described. In such cases, it is generally necessary to cool the article to room temperature prior to decoration.
- a heat release transfer where the heat of the article may be relied upon to eifect release of the design from the backing, it has still been necessary heretofore to cool the article to it has been customary to use decala substantial extent in order to achieve success.
- a primary object of the present invention is to provide an improved vitreous transfer of the heat release type which is capable of being used at substantially higher ware temperatures than has been possible heretofore.
- a further object of the invention is to provide a novel and improved heat release formulation for a vitreous decalcomania of the type described.
- FIG. 1 is a diagrammatic cross-sectional representation on an exaggerated scale of a decalcomania transfer comprising one specific embodiment of the invention.
- FIG. 2 is a view similar to FIG. 1 but showing a modification of the invention.
- the embodiment of the invention therein illustrated comprises a vitreous decalcomania or transfer which is adapted for manufacture by any suitable printing method, e.g. silk screen printing, lithography, rotogravure, or letter press printing.
- the decalcomania has a releasable backing comprising in this instance a paper sheet 1 with a barrier layer or coating 2 which renders one side of the paper less porous and retards penetration by wax or wax-like materials.
- the barrier coating 2 may be omitted if desired.
- the barrier coated paper is also provided with a superimposed coating 3 of a special wax-like heat release material which constitutes the principal feature of the invention, as hereinafter described in detail.
- a clear resinous film 4 is disposed over the heat release coating 3 and serves as an imprint receiving support for the subsequently applied vitreous design.
- the vitreous design indicated at 5, is disposed directly against the clear layer 4, it being understood that the design 5 will usually comprise a compound or composite layer including a plurality of different ceramic color compositions arranged to provide the desired ornamentation or text matter.
- a layer 6 of a suitable thermoplastic or heat activartable adhesive material which serves as a temporary binder for securing the design 5 to the article being decorated.
- the vitreous decalcornania described above is employed in decorating a ceramic or glass article by contacting the outermost thermoplastic layer 6 of the transfer with the heated article.
- the heat thus applied to the transfer accomplishes two effects in a single step.
- the thermoplastic layer '6 is activatedv or rendered tacky so that the vitreous design 5 is temporarily adhered to the ceramic or glass surface.
- the application of heat to the decalcomania from the design side thereof causes the heat release coating 3 to melt or soften thereby automatically releasing the barrier coated paper backing.
- the clear layer 4 is released as a unit with the design 5 and is disposed outermost when the design 5 is on the article.
- the article is fired at a high temperature in the usual manner so that the vitreous design 5 is melted and permanently fused into the ceramic or glass surface.
- the clear layer 4, the organic components of the vitreous design 5, and the temporary adhesive 6 are completely consumed during the firing operation so that only the pigmented flux component of the vitreous design 5 remains.
- the foregoing decorating technique may be applied either to glazed or unglazed ware. In the case of the latter, the transfer is applied to the bisque or unglazed article. Thereafter the bisque with the temporarily adhered design is heated to dispel the organic components of the design and a liquid glaze is then applied by dipping or spraying. After an initial drying period, the ware is then fired to produce the finished article having a very durable underglazed decoration.
- the heat release layer of a heat release type vitreous decalcomania may comprise a vegetable or mineral wax having a melting point within the range of from about 160 F. to about 220 F.
- heat release layers are not suitable for application to ceramic ware or glassware at high temperatures.
- the temperature of the ware is appreciably higher than the melting point of the wax, it will be found that the wax is dissipated too rapidly to permit proper release of the design layer from the backing. This difliculty is accounted for, at least in part, by the fact that the molten wax at high temperatures has a low viscosity and tends to be absorbed into the paper backing.
- the reduced viscosity of the molten wax at high temperatures allows the molten wax film literally to be squeezed out or extruded under the pressure of application when the ware is pressed against the decalcomania transfer.
- the temperature of the ware can be only slightly above the softening point of the wax in order for the transfer to be applied successfully. Otherwise, the ceramic colors in the design layer apparently make direct contact with the paper sheet and tend to stick or adhere to the same.
- a special formulation is employed for the heat release layer 3 (FIG. 1) which overcomes the aforementioned difiiculties and permits the transfer to be applied successfully to the Ware while the latter is at a temperature appreciably above the melting point or softening point of the heat release material.
- the heat release coating 3 I employ a mixture which is solid at room temperature and comprises a major proportion of one or more normally solid polyethylene glycols and a minor proportion of a normally liquid polyethylene glycol.
- Polyethylene glycols are polymers formed by the addition of ethylene oxide to ethylene glycol or Water and their general structure may be written as:
- These compounds are normally liquid when their average molecular weight ranges from about 200- to about 600 and are normally solid when their molecular weight is above about 1000.
- Such materials are available commercially from a number of sources, e.g. the materials sold by Union Carbide Chemicals Company under the trademark Carbowax.
- the melt viscosity of the polyethylene glycol composition i.e. the viscosity when in molten form
- the normally solid heat release coating formulation must be so constituted that when the heat release coating is melted at the high temperature of the ware, the molten coating still possesses a relatively high viscosity so that it does not readily penetrate into the paper backing 1 and also is not readily squeezed out or extruded from between backing and the design when the transfer and the ware are pressed together.
- the barrier layer 2 minimizes the opportunity for penetration of the molten coating 3 into the paper backing 1, nevertheless, such protection is not entirely adequate if the transfer is applied at high ware temperatures.
- a normally solid polyethylene glycol formulation containing at least about 25 wt. percent of normally solid polyethylene glycol compounds having an average molecular weight of from about 15,000 to about 20,000 possesses the necessary high viscosity when in molten form.
- Carbowax Compound 20M having an estimated molecular weight of 15,000 to 20,000 and a melt viscosity at 210 F. of 96,000 centipoises is particularly suited for this purpose.
- the softening point of Carbowax 20M is only about 127.4 F. which is not greatly different from the softening points of other polyethylene glycol compounds having much lower molecular weights, yet its melt viscosity is many times greater than the melt viscosity of the lower molecular weight polyethylene glycol compounds.
- the use of a high molecular weight polyethylene glycol having a high melt viscosity constitutes the crux of the present invention, it is generally desirable as a practical matter to formulate the heat release coating 3 from a mixture of polyethylene glycol compounds in order to provide more acceptable overall properties.
- the high molecular weight polyethylene glycols having a molecular weight on the order of 15,000 to 20,000 are somewhat hard and brittle in solid form and in order to impart greater flexibility or plasticity to the heat release coating it will usually be desirable to include in the formulation a major proportion of a lower molecular weight normally solid polyethylene glywl having, for example, an average molecular weight of from about 3,000 to about 8,000.
- Carbowax Compound 4000 having an average molecular weight of 30004700 and Carbowax Compound 6000 having an average molecular weight of 6000-7500 are particularly useful to modify the properties of the higher molecular weight polyethylene glycol compound such as Carbowax Compound 20M.
- the proportions of the various polyethylene glycol ingredients in the total formulation may vary considerably, it is preferred to employ at least about 25 wt. 5 percent polyethylene glycol having an average molecular weight of 15000-20000 and at least about 5 wt. percent of a normally liquid polyethylene glycol compound.
- the most suitable formulations are those containing a mixture of normally solid polyethylene glycol compounds having both high and low average molecular weights together with a certain percentage of a normally liquid polyethylene glycol compound. Good results are obtained within the following ranges:
- Weight percent Normally solid polyethylene glycol avg. M.W.
- the softening point of the heat release mixture will generally range from about 180 F. to about 340 F. Regardless of the exact proportions of the different polyethylene glycol ingredients, it is essential that the combined mixture have a high melt viscosity within the operating temperature range.
- a preferred formulation is as follows:
- the high melt viscosity of the formulation is responsible for the excellent release qualities of the transfer even at higher than usual Ware temperatures. Apparently, the high melt viscosity of the formulation prevents the molten release material from soaking into the paper backing and from being extruded too rapidly from between the backing and the design imprint. Furthermore the above described formulations do not vaporize as rapidly at high temperatures.
- a further factor of importance is that the high molecular weight polyethylene glycol compounds, such as Carbowax Compound 20M, are appreciably less hygroscopic than the lower molecular weight polyethylene glycol compounds and consequently the quantity of water or moisture present in the heat release coating is somewhat less than would normally be the case. Accordingly, less difiiculty is experienced with blow holes, blisters, and the like due to the rapidly vaporizing moisture at high temperatures.
- the high melt viscosity polyethylene glycol formulations may be applied to the paper backing according to the usual hot melt coating techniques at a coating temperature of from about 200 F. to about 300 F.
- a suitable coating weight has been found to be from about 0.4 to about 3.0 gins. per sq. in. of surface.
- the barrier layer 2 may be in the nature of a surface sizing or seal coating such as starch, casein, glue, alkali metal silicate, etc., either with or without a clay type filler.
- a highly satisfactory barrier layer comprises water glass or other alkali metal silicate having dispersed therein talc, clay or like filler.
- the presence of the barrier coating 2 on the paper 1 tends to prevent excessive penetration and absorption of the coating 3 when the latter becomes soft or molten under heat release conditions.
- the material selected for the barrier layer 2 must be stable and relatively unaffected by the temperatures normally encountered during heat release application of the decalcomania. It has also been found that the presence of the barrier coating 2, which seals the pores of the paper, apparently results in a more uniform and smoother heat release coating 3 with the result that is possible to print designs having relatively fine and delicate details without sacrificing clarity.
- the layer 4 which provides a base or support for the vitreous design 5 is an unpigmented clear resinous film which is preferably formed from the same organic medium or vehicle which provides the body portion of the various color layers or prints in the vitreous design 5. More specifically, the film 4 may comprise an ethyl cellulose lacquer or an acrylic resin such as a polymerized acrylic resin or a polymethyl methacrylate resin.
- the resinous layer 4- may be formed. over the heat release surface 3 using a fluid formulation containing a solvent which preferably has no substantial solvent effect on the coating 3.
- the formulation should also contain a suitable plasticizer such as a chlorinated diphenyl.
- a suitable plasticizer such as a chlorinated diphenyl.
- the following is a typical formulation of a material which may be used to form the clear resinous layer 4:
- Chlorinated diphenyl plasticizer (Monsanto Chemical- Company, Aroclor 1262) 1 Another typical formulation for the layer 4 using ethyl cellulose is as follows:
- the vitreous design 5 is usually a composite or compound layer formed by imprinting a plurality of successive ceramic colors over the clear layer 4.
- the silk screen method of printing is used, the
- first vitrifiable color in the form of a relatively viscous liquid or paste is forced through the screen or stencil and onto the clear layer 4.
- first print is dry, subsequent printings are then similarly applied in predetermined sequence and registration to build up the desired final composite design.
- These printing pastes or inks consist of (1) a vitrifiable material or flux containing a suitable pigment or coloring material, and (2) a fiowable vehicle or binder in which the pigmented flux is dispersed.
- the pigmented flux materials are well known to those skilled in the deco-ration of glassware and chinaware and are supplied by ceramic color manufacturers as complete vitrifiable or ceramic colors which are then dispersed in the vehicle or medium by the user in accordance with the requirements of the particular job at hand.
- lacquers are widely used containing a cellulose ester or ether (such as ethylcellulose, cellulose acetate, or nitrocellulose) in a low vapor pressure organic solvent such as ethylene glycol monobutyl ether (Butyl Cellosolve) to which is added a suitable plasticizer such as castor oil, dibutyl phthalate, or a chlorinated diphenyl.
- a cellulose ester or ether such as ethylcellulose, cellulose acetate, or nitrocellulose
- a low vapor pressure organic solvent such as ethylene glycol monobutyl ether (Butyl Cellosolve)
- a suitable plasticizer such as castor oil, dibutyl phthalate, or a chlorinated diphenyl.
- Acrylic resins such as Du Ponts Lucite, also may be used instead of the cellulosic resins and afford certain advantages in some instances.
- the proportion of pigmented flux to Vehicle or organic medium in the vitreous ink or paste which is necessary to give satisfactory color values, firing characteristics and shelf life will depend to a large extent on the specific gravity and other properties of the particular pigmented flux or ceramic color.
- a suitable paste formulation can be made by grinding about 2 parts by weight of the pigmented flux or ceramic color with about 1 part by Weight of organic medium.
- the organic medium is provided with a sufficient quantity of plasticizer to enable the printed film to maintain proper flexibility even though carrying a heavy quantity of pigmented fiux.
- the relative quantity of pig mented flux may be decreased by combining about two parts by weight of pigmented flux with about three parts by weight of organic medium.
- the plasticizer content of the organic medium will usually be reduced.
- improved firing qualities and avoidance of surface disfiguration may be realized by arranging the respective color layers of the design in a predetermined sequence so that the color print adjacent the clear layer 4 constitutes the hardest or most difiicult-ly fusible layer with each successive color layer thereafter being progressively softer or more readily fusible so that the outermost or uppermost color layer of the decalcornania is the softest or most easily fusible.
- the degree of hardness or fusing temperature of the respective ceramic colors can be readily controlled by regulation of the composition and quantity of the flux content of the color.
- typical ceramic color formulae for the vitreous design 5 in FIG. 1 may comprise the following:
- a white color layer may have a flux consisting of 62.8% lead oxide or litharge, 17.8% boric oxide, 14.1% silicon dioxide, and 5.3% cadmium oxide (all percentages by weight). To this formula 16% by weight of titanium dioxide is milled in as an opacifier.
- a red color layer may include a flux containing 56.0% lead oxide or litharge, 29.8% silicon dioxide, 3.2% boric oxide, 2.1% lithium oxide, 4.1% cadmium oxide, 3.0% titanium dioxide, and 1.8% sodium oxide (all percentages by weight). To this flux formula about 9% by weight of red pigment comprising cadmium sulfoselenide and cadmium oxide is milled in.
- the flux formulation may include 78.0% lead oxide or litharge, 10.3% boric oxide, and 11.7% silicon dioxide (all percentages by 8 weight). This formula is combined with about 16% by weight of black pigment composed of a mixture of cobalt, chromium and iron oxides.
- Each of the foregoing pigmented fluxes is ground in an organic medium, such as a cellulose ester or ether or an acrylic resin vehicle as hereinbefore described, the proportion of organic medium and its plasticizer content being regulated to provide the desired color and storage and firing characteristics in the finished transfer.
- organic medium such as a cellulose ester or ether or an acrylic resin vehicle as hereinbefore described
- the clear resin formulations described heretofore for the layer are highly satisfactory for use with the foregoing ceramic color formulations and may be composited in the proportion of 2 parts by weight of ceramic color to 1 part by weight of clear vehicle.
- the thermoplastic or heat activatable adhesive layer 6, which constitutes the temporary bonding agent for effecting preliminary adherence of the vitreous design 5 to the article being decorated, may consist of any suitable thermoplastic resinous adhesive such as a maleic modified or maleate resin, an acrylic resin, a vinyl resin, polyvinyl methyl ether, etc. Excellent results are obtained with a modified ethyl cellulose lacquer residue containing a suitable plasticiaer, such as chlorinated diphenyl, and an ester gum, e.g. the glyceryl, methyl, or ethyl esters of rosin acids.
- a suitable plasticiaer such as chlorinated diphenyl
- an ester gum e.g. the glyceryl, methyl, or ethyl esters of rosin acids.
- Reslac 121 -45 and. manufactured by Reslac Chemicals Inc. of Chicago, Illinois is particularly suitable for forming the layer 6.
- FIG. 2 a modification of the invention is shown which is the same as FIG. 1 with the exception that the barrier layer 2 on the paper backing has been omitted.
- the use of a high melt viscosity material for the heat release layer 3 will frequently prevent excessive absorption of the molten material in the paper 1 to the extent that a separate barrier layer 2 can be omitted without seriously detracting from the release characteristics of the transfer.
