Printing process for preparing controlled scattering effects

A method for creating controlled scattering effects including (a) disposing at least one curable ink layer onto a substrate in an imagewise fashion or in a continuous film fashion; (b) applying a first cure to partially cure the ink layer (a); (c) disposing at least one scattering material onto the...

Zusammenfassung:A method for creating controlled scattering effects including (a) disposing at least one curable ink layer onto a substrate in an imagewise fashion or in a continuous film fashion; (b) applying a first cure to partially cure the ink layer (a); (c) disposing at least one scattering material onto the ink layer (a); and (d) applying a second cure to fully cure the ink layer (a); wherein the first cure and the second cure are applied in a manner to control the disposition of the scattering material on top of and penetration into the curable ink layer to control surface and subsurface scattering properties.
