What is quick-drying sublimation transfer
Jun 26, 2024
Sublimation transfer is a new process that uses an inkjet printer equipped with thermal transfer ink to print portraits, landscapes, texts and other images on thermal transfer paper in a mirror-reversed manner, and then heats to about 200°C through thermal transfer equipment. The thermal transfer ink on the thermal sublimation paper will penetrate into the substrate in the form of vaporization, thereby realistically transferring the color of the image on the paper to textiles, porcelain cups, porcelain plates, porcelain boards, metals and other materials.
To use special thermal sublimation transfer ink, you must use thermal sublimation transfer ink. This ink made of disperse dyes will sublimate and dye the substrate at the transfer temperature. Good quality thermal sublimation ink is not easy to clog the nozzle, the color is realistic, and the stability is good.
Adjust the appropriate color concentration. Adjust the color concentration in the computer to avoid the situation where too much ink is difficult to dry. After adjustment, you need to check the effect of thermal transfer. Adjust the appropriate heat pressing temperature and time. The temperature range of thermal transfer is about 180-230℃, and the time is about 10-30 seconds. Before formal batch transfer, a small test should be done to determine the best process parameters.
During thermal transfer, the heat pressing surface must be close to the heat pressing surface, transfer paper, and substrate surface. There must be no gaps, otherwise the transfer image will be blurred. Advantages of thermal sublimation transfer Thermal sublimation transfer images are bright and rich in color, and its effect is comparable to printing. Thermal sublimation transfer is to make the thermal transfer ink sublimate under high temperature and penetrate into the object, and after condensation, a bright and colorful image is formed. Therefore, thermal transfer products are durable, and the image will not fall off, crack or fade.
