一、the nature of different

1, the nature of thermal transfer ink: mainly used for heating transfer printing products.

2, the nature of sublimation ink: the transfer paper will be sublimated thermal transfer ink transfer to the fabric printing process.

Second, the characteristics of different

1, heat transfer ink characteristics: with pigment ink to print, even in ordinary paper printing will not blot, and, because the pigment itself is waterproof, not easily decomposed by ultraviolet light, making it water-resistant, light-resistant. Even when used outdoors, the print can be maintained for more than a year, without obvious signs of fading.

2, sublimation ink characteristics: the process of printing the pattern of rich layers, bright colors, a thousand changes, small color difference, good reproducibility. The image will not fall off, crack or fade, and wear-resistant, sun-resistant, so sublimation heat transfer products have greater durability advantages.

The effect required by the designer can be achieved, suitable for mass production; transfer processing through the transfer machine once processed (heating, embossing) will be transferred to the surface of the product with the fine pattern on the transfer film, after forming the ink layer and the product surface dissolved into one, realistic and beautiful, greatly improving the grade of the product.

Extended information:

Thermal transfer ink is mainly produced in the United States and South Korea. The color of American thermal transfer ink and Korean thermal transfer ink is bright and strong, and the pattern printed on paper by American and Korean thermal transfer ink is light and clear. After thermal transfer printing by thermal transfer machine, the image is clear and the degree of color recovery is high. This is also the advantage of imported thermal transfer ink.

Most of the manufacturers of Chinese thermal transfer ink are concentrated in the south of China in Fangchenggang, although the price is much cheaper than the U.S. thermal transfer ink and Korean thermal transfer ink, but the domestic thermal transfer ink is darker and the paper color is higher. After the transfer, the color recovery is poor. Due to the high density of the transfer ink, it is easy to block the printer nozzle, while the imported thermal transfer ink can avoid this phenomenon.
