Method for printing sparkling fabric with adhesive and metal plating
A fabric printing method has been patented, involving the application of adhesive to sparkling foil paper to create a sparkling fabric. The process includes distributing adhesive as separable pieces on the foil paper, pressing it onto fabric while maintaining a specific temperature, cooling until the adhesive dries, and removing the foil paper to reveal the sparkling fabric. The method does not involve the application of glitter to the fabric, distinguishing it from traditional fabric printing techniques. The patent also details specific temperature requirements during pressing and cooling stages, as well as the composition of the adhesive used in the process.
Furthermore, the patent outlines various aspects of the method, such as the distribution of adhesive pieces in different sizes and densities on the foil paper, the use of an embossing cylinder for applying adhesive, and the specific types of fabric suitable for this printing method. The removal of the foil paper results in a design layer with geometric forms attached to the fabric, providing a unique and visually appealing finish. The exposed design layer has a metallic luster and includes shapes like circles, dots, or polygons. Overall, the patented fabric printing method offers a novel approach to creating sparkling fabrics without the use of traditional glitter, opening up new possibilities for textile design and production.
