Abstract:
A pattern carrier in form of a paper web with a colour pattern printed thereon to be used in transfer pattern printing of a moist textile web by a compressing of the two webs between one or more pairs of rollers without the use of heat, but under such a linear pressure that the textile web is subjected over a short length to a compressing into a reduced thickness followed by a natural expansion, whereby the colour pattern is absorbed from the pattern carrier into the textile web, characterised in that the pattern carrier is made of paper with an air permeability of more than 500 ml/min, measured according to the standard DIN 53120 T1, and a water absorption corresponding to a Cobb-number, measured according to the standard SCAN-P12:64, Cobb60, of at least 50, said paper being coated with an aqueous dispersion of carboxymethylcellulose containing a non-crystalline saccharide syrup, whereafter one or more colour patterns are printed on said paper, each colour pattern comprising a water-soluble or dispersible dye admixed with an easily soluble thickening carrier with a temporary binding effect.
