Abstract
A patterned decorative material is prepared by a method which comprises application of a thermosetting powder coating material to a base plate; melting of the thermosetting powder coating material by heating; embossing of the coating layer alone while the melt thermosetting powder coating material has a gel fraction formed by a hardening reaction of 15 to 75 weight percent; and further heating to form a hardened coating on the base plate.
