Cotton T=shirts provided with pictures - transferred from substrate bearing thermoplastic toner image transferred to it from electrostatic toner image carrier

摘要

Pictorial reproductions are transferred onto cotton T-shirts by first producing an electrostatic latent image in a known manner on an intermediate substrate, coating the latent image with thermoplastics toner, reversing the polarity of charge to transfer the toner image to a second intermediate substrate coated on both sides with a layer (pref. of polyethylene) and a thermoplastics clear lacquer layer adjacent the toner image. Toner image fixed on the substrate is transferred to the T-shirt by application of heat and pressure. Satisfactory transfers are achieved irrespectively of chemical compsn. of the material or fabric receiving the pictorial reproduction.
