ABSTRACT:
A method for decoration of paper or plastic sheeting and other substrates, involving a novel technique for coating and embossing the substrate. The paper or plastic sheeting is supplied with a coating of thermosensitive material, as by extrusion. The coated sheet is heated to adequately soften the coating, such as by use of a heated cylinder, and remote heat sources such as infrared heaters. The softened sheet surface is then decorated using an embossing member, to provide a diffraction pattern or hologram. Use of an embossment pattern of lesser depth than the surface roughness of the sheet before embossing provides attractive decorative patterns.
