Sublimation paper: the right hand of digital printing

Blog Article

In the era of rapid development of digitization, Sublimation paper, as a special digital printing material, is favored because of its excellent performance and wide application fields. In this paper, the principle, characteristics, application method and application of Sublimation paper are introduced in detail to help readers better understand this innovative material.

1. The principle of Sublimation paper

Sublimation paper is a digital sublimation transfer printing paper specially developed for high speed inkjet printing. Its working principle is based on sublimation technology, that is, under high temperature conditions, a specific ink will sublimate from the surface of the paper and penetrate directly into the inner fiber of the substrate, thus achieving high-precision pattern transfer. In this process, the ink molecules directly change from solid to gas under the action of high temperature, avoiding the blurring and diffusion that may be caused by liquid ink, thus ensuring the high clarity and color reducibility of the printed pattern.

2. Sublimation paper characteristics

Bright color, good reducibility: Sublimation paper can ensure that the print pattern is bright color, rich level, and has a high color reducibility, so that the printed work is more vivid and lifelike.

Fine pattern, clear edge: Due to the use of inkjet printing technology, Sublimation paper can print extremely fine pattern, clear edge, no blur phenomenon.

Strong weatherability and long shelf life: the pattern printed by Sublimation paper has high weatherability and can resist the erosion of various environmental factors such as ultraviolet light, water, oil, etc., to ensure the long-term preservation of the pattern.

Wide application range: Sublimation paper is suitable for a variety of materials, including metal, plastic, glass, ceramics, polyester, etc., which makes its application fields wide, such as home decoration, personalized gifts, advertising promotion and so on.

3.  Sublimation paper use method

Select the right equipment and ink: When using Sublimation paper, it is necessary to cooperate with a special sublimation printer and ink to ensure the printing effect and color reduction.

Print pattern: The designed pattern is printed on Sublimation paper through the thermal sublimation printer. When printing, you need to pay attention to adjusting the parameters of the printer, such as temperature, humidity, etc., to ensure the best printing effect.

Transfer pattern: the printed Sublimation paper is closely attached to the substrate, and then the ink is sublimated and penetrated into the interior of the substrate by hot pressing or thermal transfer machine for high temperature treatment. During the transfer process, it is necessary to control the temperature and time to avoid damage to the substrate.

Cooling and cleaning: After the transfer is complete, the substrate is cooled to room temperature and excess paper and ink residue is removed to obtain the final print.

4.Application field of Sublimation paper

Home decoration: Sublimation paper can be used to print a variety of home decorations, such as curtains, wallpaper, throw pillows, carpets, etc., to add personalized color to the home environment.

Personalized gifts: The use of Sublimation paper can print out a variety of personalized gifts, such as mugs, T-shirts, photo albums, etc., to send unique blessings to relatives and friends.

Advertising promotion: Sublimation paper can also be used to print a variety of advertising promotion materials, such as posters, leaflets, display boards, etc., to attract consumers' attention.

Industrial application: In industrial production, Sublimation paper can be used to print a variety of logos, labels and decorative patterns, such as electronic product shell, automotive interior, etc.

In summary, Sublimation paper, as an innovative digital printing material, has become an important part of modern printing industry by virtue of its excellent performance and wide application fields. By understanding its principle, characteristics and use methods, we can make better use of this material and create more beautiful and personalized works.
