PURPOSE:To obtain a transfer material capable of providing a beautiful metallic luster pattern by forming an adhesive layer of a thermosetting resin and 5-70pts.wt. of an extender pigment, and providing the adhesive layer patternwise after a release layer and a vapor-deposited metallic layer are sequentially provided on a base sheet having releasability. CONSTITUTION:An adhesive layer 6 comprises a thermosetting resin, such as an acryl/ melamine thermosetting resin, and an extender pigment. The use of the thermosetting resin ensures that a required strength can be obtained by a heating treatment after transfer, and the use of the extender pigment prevents a volume shrinkage of the adhesive layer 6 from occurring. The extender pigment may be silica, precipitated barium sulfate or the like, and is used in an amount of 5-70 parts based on the amount of the thermosetting resin. The transfer material is laid on an image receiving body 7 so that the adhesive layer 6 makes contact with the body 7, then heat and pressure are applied to the transfer material from the side of a base sheet 1 to adhere the transfer material to the body 7, and the base sheet 1 is released. Parts of the transfer material at which the adhesive layer 6 is provided are left on the image receiving body 7 correspondingly to a pattern, whereby a metallic luster pattern is provided on the body 7. |
