Abstract: The invention relates to a method allowing the heat transfer of a multilayer complex (1) onto the front face of a textile material (13), said multilayer complex comprising a layer (5) containing polyurethane and a superimposed expansible layer (6) containing a gelled vinyl polychloride plastisol and a non-expanded heat-expansion agent. To this end: the multilayer complex is placed on the visible front face of the textile material, the polyurethane-containing layer being the furthest away from the textile material so as to form, after the transfer, a visible decorative layer on the front face of the textile material; and temperature and pressure conditions are applied so as to cause the adhesion of the multilayer complex to the visible front face of the textile material and the simultaneous expansion of the expansible layer. A three-dimensional edge effect can be obtained using different color layers.

Abstract: Product for decorating a base material includes a sheet transferable by hot-pressing. A raised pattern is defined by the front surface of this transferable sheet whereof a shape-holding layer is obtained from a polyurethane-based solution having a high solids content having partial, prematurely blocked polymerisation. The invention is usable in the field of fabric decoration.
