A decorative sheet is obtained by a process which comprises superimposing a reinforcing plate, a second hot melt adhesive sheet, a porous decorating sheet, a third transparent hot melt adhesive sheet, and a transparent film in sequence on a first hot melt adhesive sheet, and then subjecting the laminate to heat pressing. The decorative sheet is then inserted into the mold. A base resin is then injected onto the back side of the first adhesive sheet of the decorative sheet.

Decorative molded product and process for the production thereof

A molded article containing an outer decorative film and a support, and a method and composition for making the same are disclosed. The outer film has a decorative layer and a protective layer, the protective layer being formed from a photopolymerizable resin composition. In an uncured state, the composition includes (a) an acrylic copolymer containing a backbone and at least one side chain linked to the backbone, the at least one side group having at least one (meth)acryloyl group, the backbone having a glass transition temperature of about 40.degree. C. to about 120.degree. C. and a weight-average molecular weight of about 10,000 to about 200,000; (b) a compound other than the copolymer (a), the compound having at least three (meth)acryloyl groups; and a photopolymerization initiator. The at least one (meth)acryloyl group is preferably linked to the backbone by a reacted glycidyl group.
