Why does the Dye sublimation paper curl?

 Dye sublimation paper is one of the important consumables for the sublimation process.

Dye sublimation transfer printing is a new process. Use an inkjet printer equipped with dye sublimation transfer ink to print portraits, landscapes, texts and other pictures on the inkjet paper for dye sublimation transfer in a mirror image manner. The transfer paper is heated to about 200°C by the thermal transfer equipment, so that the thermal transfer ink sublimates and penetrates into the substrate, so that the color image on the paper can be realistically transferred to textiles, porcelain plates, metals and other materials.

Sublimation transfer paper frequently warps at the edges during usage and storage. Digital printing is greatly harmed by this circumstance. Paper jams, scraping nozzles, and other issues can result from the warping of the paper's edge, which can very easily cause problems with paper feeding during printing. The scraping nozzle has a negative impact on the printing effect as well as creating undesirable conditions including fuzzily printed patterns and ink clumps. It also severely damages the printing apparatus. Serious repercussions from scraping the print head include damage to the device and a shorter equipment lifespan. Simultaneously, warping of the paper edge can easily lead to issues like winding difficulties.

  So why does the sublimation paper curl up?

   The edges of sublimation transfer paper frequently warp when being stored and used. Digital printing is severely harmed by this scenario. Warping of the paper's edge can easily lead to issues with paper feeding during printing, which can ultimately result in paper jams, scraping nozzles, and other issues. In addition to having a negative impact on the printing result, the scraping nozzle also creates undesirable conditions like jumbled ink and fuzzy patterns and severely damages the printing apparatus. Scraping the print head can have detrimental effects, including the print head becoming damaged and the printing equipment's service life being shortened. Simultaneously, the bending of the paper edge might lead to issues like difficulties winding.

In order to alleviate this situation, some high-quality transfer paper will also be thin-coated on the back of the paper surface, thereby alleviating the problem of warpage of the transfer paper.

  Considering the actual experience of customers, MILLIONTON company attaches great importance to the warpage problem of dye sublimation transfer paper, and tries to improve the warpage problem of the paper starting from the coating, and has achieved certain results. Welcome customers to come to consult.
