Abstract:
1. A thin film lamination-delamination process comprising the steps of: a) providing a support layer having first and second surfaces; b) applying at least one thin polychlorotrifluoroethylene base layer, having first and second surfaces, onto at least one surface of said support layer, with said first surface of said at least one base layer overlying a surface of said support layer, wherein said base layer has a thickness of from about 0.04 mil (1 μm) to about 0.4 mil (10.2 μm); c) applying an adhesive layer onto said second surface of said base layer; d) attaching the base layer to a receiver sheet via said adhesive layer, wherein the bond strength between said base layer and said receiver sheet is at least about 2 times the interlayer bond strength between said base layer and said support layer; and e) separating said support layer from said base layer, such that said base layer remains attached to said receiver sheet.
