Abstract

The invention relates to a radiation-curable printing medium based on a thermoplastic polymer and at least one radiation-curable monomeric compound. By means of a compound which comprises a heterocyclic ring, it is possible to achieve a favorable combination of properties comprising reactivity and flexibility of the decoration. Preferred monomeric compounds contain a 1,3-dioxolane or 1,3- or 1,4-dioxane ring, and an acrylic or methacrylic group is attached in the manner of an ester around a methylol group.The invention also provides transfers containing the printing medium and decorative preparations.
