Abstract (en)

The process for realising matrices which can be used for decorating ceramic tiles comprises the following stages: manufacture of a template (1) reproducing, in three-dimensional form and in relief with respect to a reference surface (2) of the template (1), a decoration to be applied on ceramic tiles; creation of a matrix (3) made of an elastomer, obtained by impression of the elastomer on the template (1), thus creating on the elastomer a recessed impression of the decoration on the template (1). The recessed impression is obtained by a dropping of the elastomer in a liquid state onto the template and a subsequent solidification of the elastomer on the template (1) to form a layer. The recessed impression is destined to be filled with a product to be transferred onto the tiles, which will constitute the decoration thereon. <IMAGE>
