Basic knowledge of heat transfer printing: what is transfer printing?

Transfer printing is often said in the printing industry, so what does transfer printing actually mean? A lot of people are a little bit vague about this, today we will find out the basic knowledge of heat transfer printing technology transfer printing.

What is transfer printing?

Actually transfer printing is one of textile printing methods. Beginning in the late 1960s, it was a printing process in which a dye was first printed on other materials such as paper and then transferred to the fabric by hot pressing. Most used in chemical fiber knitwear, clothing printing. Transfer printing through dye sublimation, swimming, melting, ink layer stripping process.

Transfer printing is to print the dye pigment on transfer printing paper first, and then transfer the dye in the pattern to the textile through heat treatment when transfer printing, and solidify to form the pattern. The most widely used transfer printing method is dry transfer on synthetic fabrics using disperse dyes. This method is the first choice of co-use of disperse dyes and paste, alcohol, benzene and other solvents and resin grinding tune into ink, printed on tough paper made transfer paper. In printing, the patterned side of the transfer paper is overlapped with the fabric. After hot pressing for about 1min at high temperature (220 degrees), the disperse dye is sublimated into gaseous state and transferred from the paper to the fabric. After printing, there is no need for water treatment, so there is no waste water. However, the existing ecological problems require large amounts of transfer paper in addition to the dyes and auxiliaries in the color paste, which are difficult to recycle after printing.
