Dye-sublimation transfer printing is a printing technique that uses heat and pressure to transfer solid dyes to the surface of textiles or other items. In this process, the design is first printed on special paper, which is then attached to the surface of the textile or object and placed in a heat press machine for heat and pressure. Under the action of high temperature and high pressure, the dye will sublimate in a gaseous state, transfer from the paper to the surface of the article and enter the interior of the fiber, forming a lasting color printing effect. Dye-sublimation transfer printing technology is suitable for various textile products (non-pure cotton light-colored fabrics, cotton content less than 30%), such as T-shirts, hats, socks, shoes, etc., and can achieve high-quality, high-resolution printing effects .
The fabric (non-pure cotton light-colored clothes) printed by sublimation transfer technology has fine patterns, bright colors, rich and clear layers, high artistry, and strong three-dimensional effect, which is difficult to achieve by general printing methods, and can be printed Pattern in photography and drawing style.
The biggest feature of sublimation transfer printing is that the dye can diffuse into polyester or fiber, and the printed product feels very soft and comfortable, and the existence of the ink layer is basically not felt. In addition, since the ink has already dried during the transfer printing process, the life of the image is as long as the life of the garment itself, and there will be no wear and tear of the printed graphics, which will affect the beauty of the fabric.
During sublimation transfer printing, multiple color patterns can be printed at one time without alignment. According to the individual needs of customers, jobs can be printed in a short period of time to meet the individual needs of customers.
Different from traditional fabric printing, sublimation transfer printing does not require post-processing such as steaming and washing, which saves a lot of water resources and no sewage discharge, which can save resources and protect the environment.

In addition to fabrics (non-cotton light-colored clothes), it can also be transferred to leather, metal, wood, ceramics, glass, plexiglass, PVC plates and other products. The main feature of sublimation transfer printing technology is that the transfer image is bright in color and rich in layers, and the effect is comparable to that of printing. The difference from printing is that the dye in the transfer ink is sublimated by heat, penetrates into the surface of the object, and forms a brightly colored image after sublimation. So the heat transfer products are durable and the images will not peel off, crack and fade.
1. High thermal transfer rate
2. Bright colors: excellent color saturation and depth, high degree of reproduction
3. Fluency: the ink dispersion system is stable and the fluidity is good
4. Washing fastness: Perspiration fastness and rubbing fastness both reach above grade 4~5
5. Light fastness: extremely high light fastness, CMYK can reach level 7 or above
6. Safety and environmental protection: its chemical composition meets the requirements of SGS safety chemicals

The white side of the sublimation transfer paper is the printing side, and the pink side (blue side) is the back side. Dye-sublimation transfer paper is slow-drying paper, it is recommended to dry for a while after printing, the effect is better
Do not touch the image on the surface of the paper with your fingers to avoid leaving fingerprints on the image. When fixing the drawing on the cup, do not rub the drawing back and forth on the cup body, so as not to rub the color on the surface of the paper and affect your transfer quality.
Storage environment: store in a clean, cool and dry place, the ideal temperature is 20-30°C, and the relative humidity is 30%-70%.
We have leading inkjet ink technology to provide you with a one-stop printing solution
Sublimation transfer printing ink is the key material of sublimation transfer printing technology, mainly composed of disperse dyes, binders, solvents and a small amount of additives. The dye should have good sublimation transferability and permeability, and reach a certain amount fastness index. The sublimation transfer process requires that the temperature be controlled within the range of 180 degrees Celsius to 230 degrees Celsius, and the time is about 10~30S. At the same time, attention should be paid to the temperature Reasonable deployment with time, and the pressure should be moderate.
In addition to ink, temperature, time and pressure that will affect the quality of sublimation transfer printing, there are still some things that deserve our attention in the actual production process. For the selection of sublimation paper, suppliers with stable quality and high reputation are the first choice for printing companies. Secondly, it is necessary to make samples before printing and production. Generally, dyes that look dark and dull before transfer printing rely on 200 degrees Celsius. The true color of the pattern can only be restored after the left and right high temperature transfer printing. Fcolor focuses on providing one-stop digital printing printing solutions. The supporting facilities of the entire process can be provided for you. The quality is stable and the source manufacturers supply directly. No need to go through middlemen, reduce unnecessary costs, and increase your profit income.
