Method for preparing flock transfer including drying release adhesive prior to applying flock

Abstract

A transferable flocked fiber design or sticker material which comprises a releasably flocked fiber base including fibers releasably flocked at one end to one major surface of a release support base sheet in upright position by means of a release adhesive layer; and a thermoplastic and pressure-sensitive synthetic resin layer applied to the other end of the flocked fibers. The entire area of the fiber-flocked surface of the release support base sheet is colored or printed or a selected area of the surface is colored or printed in a desired design or pattern and hot melt resin in the form of particles or pellets is sprinkled over the colored or printed surface of the release support base sheet. A method for preparing the releasably flocked fiber base in which a release adhesive layer is formed on one major surface of a release support base sheet, fibers are releasably flocked to the adhesive-applied surface of the release support base sheet and the adhesive-applied surface is colored or printed.
