An ornamental heat transfer is described which is especially adapted for application to nylon fabrics. The ornamental heat activated transfer includes an upper layer which is generally a thermoset layer, cloth such as twill or flock which is bonded to a lower layer. The lower layer is an uncured linear saturated polyester film which includes a heat activatable isocyanate curing agent. Upon application of the transfer to nylon the transfer is heated which melts the uncured saturated polyester and activates the curing agent. Thus while the linear saturated alkyl polyester is in a molten state the curing agent causes the polyester to cure in tight confinement with the nylon fabric. |
