Abstract
Provided is an adhesive fabric paper that is used in color printers for personal computers, printing machines for indoor and outdoor advertisement, wide format printers, plotters, and so on to print colored images. In the invention, the rear side of the fabric is not subjected to gray coating and white coating, and the front side of the fabric is coated with a coating solution containing at least one fixation-strengthening agent selected from among titanium dioxide, silicon oil, silicon dioxide, polyoxyethylene sorbitan trioleate, and polyvinyl alcohol. The adhesive fabric paper shows the same functions as those of the rear side coating layer and can be manufactured by a simpler process at reduced costs.
Claims2
A method for manufacturing a readherable, repositionable and reusable adhesive fabric paper for printing images, the method comprising the steps of:
- weaving polyester DTYs (draw textured yarns) to prepare a woven fabric;
- heating and rapidly cooling the woven fabric to shrink the width of the fabric by 12-17%;
- coating the front side of the fabric with a coating solution containing at least one fixation-strengthening agent selected from the group consisting of titanium dioxide, silicon oil, silicon dioxide, polyoxyethylene sorbitan trioleate, and polyvinyl alcohol;
- aging the coated fabric;
- and
- laminating an adhesive-coated backing material directly to the rear side of the fabric,
- wherein the step of coating the front side of the fabric is performed by applying to the fabric front side a first “S” coating solution containing 3-8 wt. % of titanium dioxide as a fixation-strengthening agent in addition to an ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer and water as main components to form a first “S” coating layer, and applying to the first “S” coating layer a second “S” coating solution containing 1-5 wt. % of each of silicon oil and silicon dioxide as fixation strengthening agents in addition to polyurethane resin and methyl alcohol as main components to form a second “S” coating layer.

- aging the coated fabric;
- and
- laminating an adhesive-coated backing material directly to the rear side of the fabric,
- wherein the step of coating the front side of the fabric is performed by applying an “R” coating solution, which contains 2-5 wt. % of each of polyoxyethylene sorbitan trioleate and polyvinyl alcohol as fixation-strengthening agents in addition to a low molecular alcohol and a polyacrylate copolymer as main components, twice to the front side of the fabric.
