Abstract
Abstract A heat transfer sheeting combination of the type for being applied onto a fibrous article (10) to imprint a design coating (14) thereon including a substrate (12), a design coating (14) disposed on the substrate (12), and an adhesive layer (24) disposed on the design coating (14). The adhesive layer (24) is responsive to heat and pressure for adhesively securing the design coating (14) to the article (10) and characterized by the adhesive layer (24) being a paste including a nylon resin and a polyester resin and an epoxy resin.
