Abstract:

The present invention relates to a product having raised thermographic print and a method for making the same. The product relates to a raised thermographic product having raised thermographic print greater than about 0. 01 inches. The method includes preparing a large granulation powder, printing a wet ink line on a sheet for receiving the large granulation powder, placing a sufficient amount of the large granulation powder on the wet ink line to provide a desired height to the raised thermographic product, removing a sufficient amount of large granulation powder from the sheet to avoid a blurred thermographic product, while leaving a sufficient amount in contact with the ink line to provide the desired height, heating the sheet over an amount of time sufficient to melt and fuse the large granulation powder, yet insufficient to cause overmelting or flattening, and cooling the fused large granulation powder sufficiently to avoid flattening, sticking, or smearing of the fused powder, thereby obtaining a raised thermographic product greater than about 0. 01 inches in height.
