Artificial nail having soft back part and method for producing it

Abstract

A method for producing an artificial nail having a soft back part is disclosed, which comprises an injection molding step for inject-molding an artificial nail figure using plastic; a smoother coating step for coating a smoother on an upper side, a lower side or upper and lower sides of the back part so as to smoothen the back part attached to a surface of a natural nail in the inject-molded artificial nail figure; and a smoother penetration step for penetrating the smoother into a surface of the back part of the artificial nail figure, whereby the back part of the artificial nail figure is more flexible and smoother than the front part of the same.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to an artificial nail having a soft back part and a method for producing it, and in particular to an artificial nail having a soft back part and a method for producing it which are characterized in that a back part of an artificial nail attached to a natural nail is softer than a front part of the same.BACKGROUND ART[0002]Generally, an artificial nail called a nail tip is formed of a synthetic resin material such as nylon or acetate and is produced by means of a molding method. The artificial nail is configured to attach on a user's nail while making a user's nail look nice and protecting a nail bed for thereby decorating a nail in a beautiful French nail design and a fascinating color.[0003]The conventional artificial nail is made by molding its whole parts using the same material, and it has hardness for maintaining a certain shape. A back part of an artificial nail attached to an upper surface of a natural nail is equipped with h...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

"The present invention provides an artificial nail with a soft back part and a method for producing it. The soft back part is achieved by using a smoother, solvent, plasticizer, or a mixture of the same on the back part of the nail and penetrating it into the surface of the nail. The soft back part is more flexible and smoother than the front part of the nail. The method includes steps of inject-molding the nail figure, coating a smoother on the upper and lower sides or both, and penetrating the smoother into the surface of the nail. The artificial nail has a thicker front part and a thinner back part in a direction of its end. The plastic material used for inject-molding the nail can be selected from PS resin, ABS resin, SBS block resin, EVA resin, or a mixed resin containing at least one of the above resins."

Problems solved by technology

There is a lot of problems for naturally attaching an artificial nail to the curved nail surfaces of different users.

However, even when a transformable layer is attached to a polymer material of an artificial nail through a spray molding, a double injection or a manual work, a certain gap might remain around the attached portions, which leads to a separation of an attached layer while making an attached part look worse.

However, when the above materials are actually used, it is impossible to maintain a natural shape of an artificial nail before wearing the same and to produce a desired product which can meet a user's demand.
