Abstract: An interior base material is obtained by a method comprising a step of treating with a treating agent which comprises (A) a water-insoluble water-absorbent resin having a water absorbency to pure water for 50 to 1,000 ml/g and a particle size of 0.1 to 100 .mu.m, (B) a polyoxyalkylene nonionic surfactant and/or an anionic surfactant, and (C) a solvent having the boiling point of 50 to 250.degree. C. A process for printing the thus-treated interior base material comprises applying a dye ink having a viscosity of 1 to 100 cps by an ink-jet method, or applying a textile printing dye paste having a viscosity of 100 to 10,000 cps by a textile printing method followed by a heat-color developing treatment.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an interior base material suitable for a pigment ink printing process on which an organic-solvent-soluble synthetic resin (A) and a water insoluble-water absorbing resin having water absorption ability against pure water of 50 to 1,000 ml/g (B) are applied, the interior base material having a printed image with a pigment ink. The invention further relates to a method of printing an interior base material comprising the steps of, applying 0.01 to 50 weight percent with respect to the base material of each of an organic-solvent-soluble synthetic resin (A) and a water insoluble-water absorbing resin having water absorption ability to pure water of 50 to 1,000 ml/g (B), applying a pigment ink having viscosity of 5 to 10,000 cps by ink-jet printing or gravure printing, and drying.This invention enables printing with excellent sharpness, uniformity to the deep part of the interior base material, and excellent build up.
