How About the Dye Sublimation ink Usage In the Sublimation Printing



As well know, an ink comprises two basic elements: a colorant, which is a pigment ink or a dye sublimation ink, and a vehicle, which is a liquid that is used to transport the colorant to the substrate. It’s common to think of dyes as liquids and pigments as solids, but actually both are solids, and the real difference between them is solubility . Generally speaking, dyes and dyestuffs are soluble in water and other solvents, while pigments are not.

So, in traditional dye sublimation printing, the ink consists of solid dye particles in a liquid suspension, usually water-based. The dye-sublimation printer transfers the ink to a transfer medium, usually sublimation paper. The sublimation transfer paper has a special coating that will not only accept this ink, but also facilitate its release in the next step of the process. It should also be noted that the image is printed in reverse on the dye sublimation paper.

The next step, variously called fixation or outgassing, involves a heat press, which can either be rotary or flatbed. Usually the term heat press refers to flatbed devices used for the fabric equivalent of sheets, while the term calender is used to refer to a fixation unit used with rolls.

In the sublimation heat press, the printed transfer paper is brought into contact with the fabric that is to be imaged. If you are planning to print on a stretchy material, you may get better results by using a tacky transfer paper that will adhere slightly to the fabric so that it won’t shift during fixing and cause blurring, ghosting, or other imaging imperfections.   



Here’s the sublime part. Under the heat and pressure of the heat press or calendering unit, the solid dye on the printed transfer paper is converted to a gas and penetrates into the fabric. The dye then resolidifies on the fibers of the fabric which makes the colors quite durable, wash-resistant, and colorfast.   This process will yield best results on 100-percent polyester materials.

Why So Hot for C.M.Y.K Color Dye Sublimation Ink Usage In Digital Textile Printing

图片
For everyday jobs, such as apparel, promotional products, signs, etc., CMYK sublimation ink usually is sufficient, as it provides a wide range of vivid color not only for graphics, but also for photography. In fact, with output resolutions as high as 1,200 dpi x 1,200 dpi, the results can be spectacular. While this sounds like a palette of unlimited artistic opportunities, one ink set doesn’t work for all needs. In digital dye sublimation printing , output color is created by combining different percentages of a baseline set of inks. The most common printer color configuration is CMYK — cyan, magenta, yellow and black. With this ink combination, you can print a wide range of colors, typically in excess of 600,000 variations. However, some shops need more focused options to deliver specific colors for specific applications. For example, many corporate, event and team logos require exact color matches when it comes to reproduction. They may provide PMS or RGB col...
