VINYL CHLORIDE SHEET

PURPOSE:To obtain a vinyl chloride sheet superior in wear resistance by a method wherein the surface of a vinyl chloride sheet body subjected to printing of specific ink with a specific ink thickness is embossed so that the ink can be embedded in the sheet body and have irregularities on the surface thereof, and the ink surface forms a printing surface along the irregularities on the surface. CONSTITUTION:On a surface 1a of a vinyl chloride sheet body 1 of a predetermined thickness, ink 2 compounded with a required amount of a vinyl chloride paste resin as a base is printed in a predetermined pattern by rotary screen printing. The printed surface is embossed. In this manner, the surface 1a is shaped into a recessed and projected form, and a printing surface 3 having irregularities and a natural feel is formed. The ink 2 in use is compounded with 40-55 pts.wt. plasticizer per 100 pts.wt. of vinyl chloride paste resin having a polymerization degree of 1000-1450. The coating weight of the ink is determined so that the ink in a dry state has a thickness of 0.01-0.10mm, whereby a printing pattern at the time of embossing can be kept, and design properties can be obtained.
