Method of durably and flexibly grafting a delicately decorated fabric to a cotton clothing such as jeans utilizing stencils

Abstract

A method of durably and flexibly grafting a delicately decorated fabric to cotton clothing such as jeans or T-shirts is discloses. The method is comprised of; 1) first step of engaging a delicate pattern printed clothing on a supporting plate of an automatic printing machine, 2) second step of pasting an alkaline solution on the delicate pattern printed clothing with the first stencil, 3) third step of pasting a grafting glue along the outer line of the delicate pattern that is printed on the clothing with the second stencil, 3) fourth step of pasting a water soluble glue on one side of a fabric, 4) fourth step of overlapping the water soluble glue pasted fabric's side over the clothing that is engaged to the plate, 5) fifth step of overlapping the third stencil over the fabric attached clothing and pasting a burn out gel on the third stencil, 6) sixth step of pulling out the fabric attached clothing from the supporting plate and drying on a dryer at 160° C. over 2 minutes, 7) seventh step of heating and pressing the fabric attached clothing between a heating press and press longer than 5 seconds at 160° C. and 2 bar, and 8) eighth step of removing the left of burn out from the grafted fabric by washing with washing machine. This technology can be applied to other artificial fabrics and clothing.

1 . A method of flexibly and durably grafting a delicately decorated fabric to a clothing such as jeans and T-shirts with stencil is comprised of eight steps of;
 the first step of engaging a clothing, which has a printed pattern, on a supporting plate of an automatic printing machine, and   the second step of pasting an alkaline solution, 15% NaOH in starch glue, along the outer line of the pattern printed on the clothing utilizing the first stencil, and   the third step of pasting grafting glue, which contains 5% of fumed-silica (CAS NO 112945-52-5) for inhibitor and 95% of Chlorinated olefins of C 12 -C 24  (CAS NO. 68527-02-6, IUPAC Name: (6E)-12-chloro-dodeca-1,6-diene (C 12 H 21 Cl), Molecular Weight 200.748140 g/mol), along the outer line of the pattern that is printed on the second stencil, which has the same pattern of the first stencil, but the thickness of the outer line and the size of the pattern is different from those of the first stencil, and   the fourth step of pasting water-soluble glue, which contains 15 wt % starch glue in 85% water and bottled in a spray can, by spraying over the whole area of a 100% cotton fabric that is twice larger than the size of the pattern printed on the clothing and over-lapping the fabric and clothing after removing the second stencil there from, and   the fifth step of pasting burn out gel, which is a mixture of 15 wt % of natural alginate, CAS No. 9005-32-7, 50 wt % of mixture of (hydroxy propyl guar gum, CAS No. 39421-75-5, 75 wt %+sodium sulphate, CAS No. 7757-82-6, 24 wt %+4-Chloro-3-methylphenol, CAS No. 59-50-7, 1 wt %), 7 wt % of glycerin and 18 wt % of water, on the other surface, opposite side of the glue pasted, of the fabric, which is positioned on the clothing, through the out line of third stencil, which has a pattern that is same as the pattern on the previous stencils with different thickness of the outer line and the size, and   the sixth step of taking out the fabric attached clothing from the supporting plate of the printing machine and drying on a dryer at 160° for 5 minutes to allow the grafting glue, which is a sol-type oligomer at room temperature, smeared into woven structure of the clothing and the fabric due to the lowered viscosity, and   the seventh step of putting the fabric attached clothing, which was dried in the sixth step, between a heating press and press for 50 seconds at 160° C. and 2 bar to develop a grafted structure across the fabric and the clothing by cross-linking polymerization of the grafting glue, which is already smeared into both of the fabric and the clothing in the sixth step, and   the eighth step of removing the burn out part of the grafted fabric by water washing using washing machine.   
     
     
         2 . A method of flexibly and durably grafting a delicately decorated fabric to a clothing such as jeans and T-shirts with stencil in  claim 1  wherein, thickness of the outer line of the pattern on the first stencil is 1 mm. 
     
     
         3 . A method of flexibly and durably grafting a delicately decorated fabrics to a clothing such as jeans with stencil in  claim 1  wherein, the third stencil has same pattern with that in the second stencil but only the thickness of the outer line is different from the thickness of the outer line of the pattern on the second stencil. 
     
     
         4 . A method of flexibly and durably grafting a delicately decorated fabric to a clothing such as jeans with stencil in  claim 1  wherein, the fourth stencil has same pattern with that in the third stencil but only the thickness of the outer line is different from the thickness of the outer line of the pattern on the third stencil. 
     
     
         5 . A method of flexibly and durably grafting a delicately decorated fabric to a clothing such as jeans with stencil in  claim 1 , where in the fabric is made of 100% cotton. 
     
     
         6 . A method of flexibly and durably grafting a delicately decorated fabric to a clothing such as jeans with stencil in  claim 1 , wherein the clothing is made of 100% cotton. 
     
     
         7 . A method of flexibly and durably grafting a delicately decorated fabric to a clothing such as jeans with stencil in  claim 1 , wherein the fabric is made of polyester. 
     
     
         8 . A method of flexibly and durably grafting a delicately decorated fabric to a clothing with stencil in  claim 1 , wherein the clothing is made of polyester.
