Abstract
Abstract A process for producing heat-induced effects on textiles, films or other suitable flexible substrata such as for example: 1. PHYSICAL MIGRATION OF DYES, CHEMICALS OR PIGMENTS; 2. HEAT FIXATION OF DYES, CHEMICALS OR PIGMENTS; 3. DEVELOPMENT OF DYES, CHEMICALS OR PIGMENTS BY THE REACTION OF TWO OR MORE COMPONENTS, OR BY HEAT-INDUCED TRANSFORMATION OF AN INTERMEDIATE; 4. CURING OF CREASEPROOFING AGENTS, CROSS-LINKING AGENTS, SYNTHETIC RESINS, NATURAL GUMS, ETC.; 5. DISCHARGING OR DESTROYING OF DYES, PIGMENTS, ETC.; 6. DRYING OF SAID FLEXIBLE SUBSTRATA. Localized and overall chemical reactions and physical changes on or in such substrata are obtained by application of heat, i.e. a temperature from about 500* F. to about 1,500* F., by contact of the flexible substrata with a heated surface within a short period of contact, e.g. a fraction of a minute, generally.
