What is the difference between heat transfer ink and ordinary ink?

The difference between heat transfer ink and ordinary ink: 1. Heat transfer ink is also called Sublimation Ink. It is a disperse dye ink and is a water-based ink. Different from other inks, heat transfer ink needs to go through high temperature to change the color. The original color will appear only after it is transferred to the item. The color printed on the Heat Transfer Paper is not the final color. The original color will not appear until it is transferred.

Scope of application of heat transfer printing process: The heat transfer printing process is suitable for transfer printing of cloth and the surface of coated hard items. The fabrics are mainly polyester and polycotton, and the hard items are those that can withstand high temperatures, such as film, metal, glass, porcelain, porcelain cups, PVC, etc... As long as the transferred items are resistant to high temperatures and combined with a heat transfer coating, it can be used the image transfer is completed through a dedicated ironing machine.

The principle of the thermal transfer process: The sublimation phenomenon of sublimation transfer ink at high temperature. At high temperatures, the dye on the paper will directly change from solid to gas at high temperature, causing the color to be transferred from the Sublimation Paper to the object to be transferred. Item surface.
