How long can the transfer effect of ECO sublimation paper last?

The duration of the transfer effect of ECO sublimation paper is affected by many factors. Generally speaking, under the condition of correct use and maintenance, the transfer effect can last for 5 to 10 years or even longer. The following is a specific analysis:

1. Transfer material

Different transferred materials have a great influence on the durability of the transfer effect. Synthetic fiber materials such as polyester fiber have a good combination with sublimation ink, and the molecular structure is relatively stable, which can keep the transfer pattern bright, firm, and last longer. For some natural fibers, such as cotton, although sublimation transfer can also be performed, the effect and durability may be slightly worse, because their molecular structure is different from that of synthetic fibers, and the adsorption and fixation ability of ink are different.

2. Ink quality

High-quality sublimation ink has better stability, color fastness, and compatibility with sublimation paper. The pattern transferred with high-quality ink is brighter and less prone to fading, and the transfer effect will last longer. On the contrary, inferior ink may have problems such as dull color and fading shortly after transfer.

3. Transfer process

Parameters such as temperature, pressure, and time are crucial in the transfer process. If the temperature is not high enough, the pressure is insufficient, or the time is too short, the ink may not fully sublimate and combine with the material, resulting in a poor transfer effect and easy detachment or fading of the pattern. Accurate control of transfer parameters can make the ink and material fully react to form a strong bond and extend the duration of the transfer effect.

4. Use environment and maintenance

If the transferred items are often exposed to direct sunlight, high temperature, and humidity, or chemical environments, the duration of the transfer effect will be shortened. For example, outdoor advertising banners are exposed to ultraviolet rays for a long time, and the pattern may fade in a short time. In a dry, well-ventilated, and chemical-free environment indoors, the transfer effect can be maintained longer. In addition, daily maintenance is also important, such as avoiding scratches with sharp objects and proper washing, which will help maintain the durability of the transfer effect.
