Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a solid drawing material containing a sublimable dye and used for transfer.

The conventional method for dyeing designs etc. on fabrics using drawing materials is to directly draw on them using water-based dyes such as crayons for dyeing or watercolors for dyeing. However, since designs are drawn directly on the fabric, the unevenness of the fabric's surface and the stretching and shrinkage of the fabric during drawing pose problems, making it difficult to draw minute pictures, letters, etc. It was difficult. In addition, watercolor paints for dyeing in particular are not only not easy to use, but also often cause "bleeding" when drawing on fabric, and to prevent this, complicated processes such as pre-treatment of the fabric are required. In addition, the amount of paint used increases due to absorption by the fabric and unevenness of the fabric surface, making it impractical. It was impossible. On the other hand, when dyeing crayons are used, dyeing crayons contain non-volatile components that remain on the fabric.
There was a drawback that stains were generated when wiping after drawing. In addition, with conventional drawing materials such as crayons for dyeing or watercolors for dyeing, the particles of the dye and pigment are coarse, and the fabric is coated with a fixing agent.
Due to the adhesion of components unnecessary for color development, such as extender pigments, color development is poor, the color lacks clarity, and the feel of the fabric is significantly impaired. Moreover, since dyes and pigments are attached to fabrics by physical bonding using a fixing agent, the fastness to washing is poor. Furthermore, since it is a direct drawing, it is difficult to correct any errors in the drawing, which results in the disadvantage of wasting expensive fabric. Therefore, transfer markers in which a felt pen or the like is filled with ink containing a sublimable dye have recently been considered. In this case, the design is first drawn on paper etc. using ink containing sublimable dye, and then the paper is overlaid on the fabric and the design on the paper is transferred to the fabric, so even if the drawing fails, the paper is still intact. This method has the advantage that the expensive fabric is not wasted, and that the adhesive remains on the paper and does not adhere to the fabric. However, the viscosity of the ink containing the sublimable dye used here is extremely low, so the color density in the design is weak, lacks sharpness, and it is difficult to express color shading.

This invention improves the above-mentioned points in the prior art by first drawing a design on a base material such as paper, then superimposing the design surface on the base material on a cloth, etc., and sublimating the design etc. onto the cloth. A solid drawing material used for transfer, which exhibits good drawing properties, is easy to handle like crayons, crayons, etc., and can draw minute pictures, letters, etc. on the base material, and When transferred onto fabric, it is easy to express the shade of color in the design, and it is possible to obtain a design rich in painterly quality.It is suitable for manual drawing, allows for good sublimation printing, and has vivid color development. To obtain a dyed pattern that does not damage the texture of the cloth, does not cause bleeding in the design, does not waste expensive cloth even in the case of a drawing failure, and has excellent washing fastness. It is an object of the present invention to provide a solid drawing material containing a sublimable dye that can be used.

As a result of research to obtain such a solid drawing material, the inventor of this invention has successfully achieved the above object by composing the drawing material with a sublimable dye, a fixing agent, an extender pigment, etc. in a specific proportion. This invention was completed after discovering that it could be obtained.

That is, the solid drawing material containing the sublimable dye of this invention consists of a fixing agent, an extender pigment, and a sublimable dye,
It also contains additives if necessary. The fixing agent provides the binding property between the drawing material and the base material, the shaping properties necessary to form the drawing material into the desired solid shape and the desired strength, and also disperses the dye and provides drawing properties. It is added for the purpose, and the content is
40-95 parts by weight, preferably 60-95 parts by weight. If the content of the fixing agent is less than 40 parts by weight, the binding properties, shaping properties, and drawing properties of the drawing material will deteriorate, and if the content of the fixing agent is more than 95 parts by weight, color development will deteriorate. Extender pigments are added as fillers, to provide drawing suitability, to prevent scum from forming during use, to improve breakage resistance and heat resistance, and to facilitate heavy coloring. is 1 to 40 parts by weight,
It is preferably 3 to 30 parts by weight. If the content of the extender pigment is less than 1 part by weight, the drawing material will lack mechanical and thermal strength, will tend to produce scum during use, will be difficult to overcolor, and will break when formed into sticks. Moreover, if the content of extender pigment is more than 40 parts by weight, the coloring density of the dye will be difficult to achieve, and rather, the resistance to dyeing will be caused. The content of sublimable dye is the required amount depending on the hue and tone, and is usually 0.1~
30 parts by weight, preferably 0.1 to 25 parts by weight. The remaining components are additives as required. As the fixing agent, one or more of paraffin wax, stearic acid, stearic acid amide, palmitic acid, microcrystalline wax, low molecular weight polyethylene, wood wax, carnauba wax, beeswax, etc. can be used. . As extender pigments, one or more of kaolin, talc, magnesium carbonate, barium sulfate, diatomaceous earth, calcium carbonate, etc. can be used. For sublimation dyes, the sublimation temperature is
A temperature of 150°C or higher is preferable, and heat resistance of 150°C or higher is required since the drawing material is heated when forming it into a solid form (for example, a stick shape). Yaku Co., Ltd.
Commercially available sublimable disperse dyes such as PT Color (manufactured by Mitsubishi Kasei Co., Ltd.) and Mitsui PS Color (manufactured by Mitsui Toatsu Chemical Co., Ltd.) can be used. Additives include dispersants,
These include anti-settling agents, wetting agents, anti-color separation agents, plasticizers, anti-bleeding agents, thickeners, etc. The dispersant is used to uniformly disperse the dye in the other composition components in the solid drawing material, and for example, a nonionic surfactant is used. The anti-settling agent is used to prevent the settling of dyes and extender pigments in a mixed and molten state before the drawing material is formed into a solid, and for example, silica powder is used. Wetting agents are used to improve the wetting of dyes and extender pigments with the fixing agent.
The color separation inhibitor is used to prevent the component dyes from separating into single dyes (color separation) when creating a mixed color using two or more types of dyes. The plasticizer is used to impart softness to the solid drawing material. Bleed inhibitors are used to prevent dyes, non-volatile components, etc. from seeping into the wrapping paper when the solid drawing material is formed into a stick shape and wrapped with wrapping paper. Adhesive is used to give adhesiveness to the drawing material.
As such additives, nonionic surfactants, higher alcohols, castor oil, silica powder, rosin, etc. can be used.

The solid drawing material containing the sublimable dye of the present invention is a stick-shaped solid drawing material having suitable hardness similar to commercially available crayons and crayons, and has writing suitability equivalent to those of these crayons and crayons. , has a drawing aptitude. Therefore, using the solid drawing material containing the sublimable dye of this invention,
By a manual method, a design or the like is first drawn on a base material such as paper, and then the design side of the paper on which the design is drawn is superimposed on a cloth or the like and heat is applied to perform sublimation transfer. In this method, the design is not written directly on the fabric, but is first drawn on a base material such as paper, which has a better surface condition than the fabric. Because there are
Fine designs can be freely drawn with the same touch as with crayons or crayons, there is no need to pre-treat the fabric surface, and the texture of the fabric is not damaged. Also, expensive fabrics are not wasted even if the drawing fails. In addition, when transferring a pattern, only the dye is transferred to the fabric, and the fixing agent, extender pigment, etc. remain on the base material, so there are no components on the transferred pattern on the fabric that would inhibit color development. Furthermore, since the dye is attached to the fabric in a molecular state, the colors of the design are clear and the color development is extremely good.

Next, examples of solid drawing materials containing sublimable dyes of the present invention will be shown in terms of basic colors.
