Process for printing on solid molded articles made from urea formaldehyde resin or melamine formaldehyde resin

摘要

A process is provided for printing designs, patterns, decorations, and the like on solid molded polymeric articles made from urea formaldehyde resin or melamine formaldehyde resin. The designs and the like are printed on porous substrate with a printing ink containing about 10 weight percent to about 40 weight percent of one or more dichlorotriazinyl dyes. The printed porous support is contacted with the solid molded polymeric article in a transfer press at a temperature in the range of about 90 DEG C. to about 250 DEG C. in the presence of steam to transfer the printed design to the solid molded polymeric articles.
