Abstract
A fabric print medium can include a woven fabric substrate, a first barrier layer on an imaging side of the woven fabric substrate where the first barrier layer includes first barrier layer binder and first barrier layer flame retardant, a primer layer on the first barrier layer wherein the primer layer includes primer layer binder and primer layer pigment filler, an imaging layer on the primer layer where the imaging layer includes imaging layer film-forming binder and where the first barrier layer, the primer layer, and the imaging layer have a combined thickness from 10 μm to 70 μm, and a non-woven support layer on a back side of the woven fabric substrate.
Claims15
A fabric print medium, comprising:
- a woven fabric substrate;
- a first barrier layer on an imaging side of the woven fabric substrate, the first barrier layer comprising first barrier layer binder and first barrier layer flame retardant;
- a primer layer on the first barrier layer, the primer layer including primer layer binder and primer layer pigment filler;
- an imaging layer on the primer layer, the imaging layer including imaging layer film-forming binder, wherein the first barrier layer, the primer layer, and the imaging layer have a combined thickness from 10 μm to 70 μm;
- and
- a non-woven support layer on a back side of the woven fabric substrate.
A method of manufacturing a fabric print medium, comprising:
- applying a first barrier layer to an imaging side of a woven fabric substrate at a dry weight basis from 0.5 gsm to 10 gsm, the first barrier layer comprising a first barrier layer binder and a first barrier layer flame retardant;
- applying a primer layer to the first barrier layer at a dry weight basis from 5 gsm to 30 gsm, the primer layer including primer layer binder and primer layer pigment filler;
- applying an imaging layer to the primer layer at a dry weight basis from 5 gsm to 20 gsm, the imaging layer including imaging layer film-forming binder;
- and
- applying a non-woven support layer to a back side of the woven fabric substrate.
A printing method, comprising applying an ink composition to a fabric print medium to generate a printed image thereon;
- the fabric print medium, comprising:
- a woven fabric substrate;
- a first barrier layer on an imaging side of the woven fabric substrate, the first barrier layer comprising first barrier layer binder and first barrier layer flame retardant;
- a primer layer on the first barrier layer, the primer layer including primer layer binder and primer layer pigment filler;
- an imaging layer on the primer layer, the imaging layer including imaging layer film-forming binder, wherein the first barrier layer, the primer layer, and the imaging layer have a combined thickness from 10 μm to 70 μm;
- and
- a non-woven support layer on a back side of the woven fabric substrate.
