Status and Prospects Of Sublimation  Transfer Printing Paper Sublimation  Transfer Printing Paper used to be at the beginning imported mainly from South Korea, the Netherlands, Switzerland, the United States, etc., and its rate is incredibly expensive. With the rapid advertising of digital sublimation switch technological know-how in China, China has also begun to enhance digital sublimation switch paper. In 2007, Nanjing GTW Industrial Co., Ltd. started to develop digital sublimation transfer paper production technology and established the first digital sublimation transfer paper manufacturing line in China. After the localization of digital sublimation switch papers, its sales rate has been considerably reduced, and the demand is also increasing. With the rapid enlargement of market capacity, the producers of digital sublimation switch papers have sprung up. It is estimated that there are no fewer than 50 manufacturers of digital sublimation transfer papers in China. ...

Yesterday I introduced 3 common issues and solutions in dye-sublimation printing, today I will share another 4. Hope will be helpful to you. 4.Why am I getting ink from a previously transferred image onto a new blank transfer? Sublimation ink has the tendency to bleed onto the bottom and top platens of your press during heat transfer, which is why it is very important to protect your press with the proper material. To prevent ink from getting onto your top or bottom platen, we recommend using a Teflon wrap for each platen, as well as a Teflon sheet. Teflon is completely reusable, and all it takes is wiping away the excess ink after each press. You may also use silicone-treated sheets that can be discarded after use. 5.Why am I seeing small dots in my transfer? If you're noticing small dots on your finished product, this is likely due to excess moisture. We recommend pre-pressing most substrates to ensure you get all moisture out. Then, let the substrate cool dow...

You may encounter some issues in dye-sublimation printing process. We' ve compiled some of the most frequent issues associated with dye-sublimation printing in case you ever experience one. 1.Why aren't my transfers coming out vibrant? There are a few reasons why your transfers could be coming out less vibrant than expected. First, make sure that you are printing on the correct side of your sublimation paper , which is typically bright white. The other side is generally off-white. Next, ensure that you are printing through the correct color correction program. 2.Why is my image ghosting? If you are seeing a second version of your transfer, like a shadow, slightly to the side of your image, you are experiencing what is known as ghosting. Ghosting occurs when the sublimation transfer paper shifts during the sublimation process, such as when you open or close your heat press . For this reason, it is recommended that you tape down your hard substrates to the sublim...

For people in the digital printing industry , the word " sublimation transfer paper " must not be unfamiliar. Today I would like to share with you some problems that should be paid attention to when using sublimation transfer paper. I hope this article will help you better use sublimation transfer paper and improve the quality of your products. Sublimation transfer paper is produced in various thicknes- ses and widths. Formed in two parts as base paper and coating on the surface. While the base paper carries the ink, chemical coating keeps the ink and allows it to dry on the surface. Good dry and good transfer efficiencies are two opposing parameters. A good transfer paper should provide the ink to dry on surface as soon as possible and also be able to transfer vast majority of the ink to the fabric. It is very important that these values must be properly run on paper printing machines and must work in the press well. Certainly, it must not have undesirable substance...

When you are engaged in printing business, you need to know not only the type of printing machine and printing ink you want to use, but also the type of paper that may be suitable for your product. Today, we will share five common types of paper with you. 1. Sublimation Papers Qualified inkjet sublimation paper for transferring images onto hard surfaces such as coated mugs, coated plates, coated metal boards, etc. 2. Transfer Papers Designed for transferring inkjet images to dark or other colour garments and substrates including T-shirts, sweatshirts, mouse pads, leather, along with other garments. It offers a softer hand and allows for photo-quality transfers with a white base. The image can be plotter cut or trimmed as desired. 3. Inkjet Papers Inkjet paper is made from high quality deinked pulp or chemical pulps and requires good dimensional stability, no curling or cockling, good surface strength, and surface smoothness. Sufficient and even porosity...

 For sublimation printing, the sublimation ink is an essential part. But have you ever wondered why we must use sublimation ink ? In other words, do you know how sublimation ink works?   We can describe how sublimation ink works through the process of sublimation printing.   First, designs the exact piece of artwork on their computer by means of any graphical design software they want. Such as Wasatch Softrip.   Then, print the image to the transfer paper with the sublimation ink. Sublimation inks are on the whole a formulation of an assortment of coloured dyes pending in liquids that are able to surpass through a digital printer.   Finally, move the image from the transfer paper to the desired entity. During this process, the inks translate from a solid to a gas and go through into the substrates plane with the heat and pressure functional.   Compared with other printing methods, use sublimation ink ca...

  There are many customers want to buy sublimation paper from us. But when i ask them the weight of paper they want, they have no idea. Actually speaking, there are many skills to determine the weight you need to use.    1. The amount of ink loading   As we all know, for sublimation paper, the thicker, the more sublimation ink loading it can absorb. If the ink-loading is low, the image is not complicate and colorful , such as swimwear. you’d better use the low weight sublimation paper like 45g, 50g, 70g, 75g. If the ink-loading is high, then 90g, 100g, 120g, 140g are the better choice.   2. The printing environment   Relative humidity is under 45%RH (without humidifier in your printing), you should choose 75gsm paper. Because in a low humidity, the paper will shrink, leave the printing side arcing up. Meanwhile, the paper will absorb water during the printing, it makes the paper wrinkles worse.   When the humi...
