The method involves printing the decorative pattern on one side of a suitable support using transferable ink, introducing this support into the injection mold so that, during the injection, its face bearing the decorative pattern is turned towards the inside of the mold, and the injection of the thermoplastic material of the object.n n n To prevent the ink from being entrained by the molten thermoplastic material which moves in the mold during injection, the method further comprises the introduction into the mold, before injection, of a film of a material capable of binding to the injected thermoplastic material and of retaining the ink forming the decorative pattern which detaches from the paper during the injection of this thermoplastic material, this film being introduced into the mold so that it is applied against the support of the decorative pattern during the injection. |
