  • Patent number: 7041722
    Abstract: The invention relates to a noble metal preparation for the production of noble metal decorations on firable decoration substrates by direct printing and indirect printing (decalcomania method). The print quality of the noble metal compounds and preparations containing a binder system on markedly curved glass may be improved when the decalcomania method is used in that the binder system consists of a resin mixture comprising (a) 25 to 50 wt. % of polyamide resins, (b) 5 to 30 wt. % of sulphurized recent resins, (c) 10 to less than 20 wt. % of colophony-modified resins, (d) 10 to 40 wt. % of alkyl phenolic resins and (e) 0 to 30 wt. % of other resins compatible therewith, wherein two or more components of said resin mixture may be present in the form of a reaction product formed at 50 to 150° C. and/or wherein one or more components of said resin system or reaction product thereof may be present in the form of a reaction product formed at 50 to 150° C.

  • Patent number: 6355714
    Abstract: The invention relates to a noble metal preparation for producing noble metal decorations on decoratively fireable substrates by direct printing and indirect printing (transfer technique). The printing quality of the preparation containing noble metal compounds and a binder system can be improved in that the binder system comprises a resin mixture of a) 25 to 40 wt. % of polyamide resins, b) 5 to 30 wt. % of sulfurised recent resins, c) 20 to 55 wt. % of rosin-modified resins, d) 0 to 30 wt. % of alkylphenol resins and e) 0 to 30 wt. % of other resins compatible therewith or of the reaction products, formed at 50 to 150° C., of the resin mixture mentioned and/or the reaction products, formed at 50 to 150° C., of the resin mixture mentioned or the reaction products of same containing the noble metal compounds in the presence of a sulfur-containing gelling agent.
