'Use of the newly synthesizedaqueous polyurethane acrylate binders for ink preparation for printing transferpaper and their utilization in transfer printing polyester fabrics'


Abstract


Investigation of the use of the four synthesizedpolyurethane acrylate binders in the formulation of printing inks (in additionto the disperse dye) to be used for printing transfer paper (uncoated andcoated types). The printed transfer papers were used to transfer printpolyester fabrics and binder fixation in one step in the process of heattransfer printing.


The effect of inclusion of these new binders in the printpaste on the ease of dyestuff release from the transfer papers, type of paper,type of binder, type of dye and the possibility of reusing the transfer papermore than once to give several prints were studied. The fastness properties ofthe polyester prints were also studied.
