Why to Go for the Option Sublimation Printing?

Sublimation printing has now become one of the popular methods for printing high-quality images onto a variety of fabrics and items as the display features no resolution loss when comparing to its original image. With an image as clear as in the source, a product made using the sublimation process will sustain its quality throughout the years.

But, what is sublimation printing? 

Sublimation is a chemical process where a solid turns into a gas without any exchange through a liquid stage.

Sublimation printing is also known as dye sublimation printing which is a popular printing method for transferring images onto suitable materials. Typical printing methods involve a step with the water, where the solid turns to water before a gaseous state. Sublimation printing does not involve any kind of liquid step but it goes right from solid to gas due to a chemical reaction (like dry ice).

How does it work?

This typically involves only use of a digital printer to produce images on sublimation transfer paper with the sublimation ink. The sublimation paper is then is placed into a heat press with the material and exposed to high temperatures of about 350 to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. This is when the ink and transfer material then turn from solid to gas. Once they are in a gas state, they permanent into the fibers of the material.

When the heat is removed from the transfer paper and substrate, the ink that has permeated is then those fibers solidify and are locked permanently into place by the transfer paper or material. Not only does the heat release the gas from the sublimation ink, but it also opens the pores of the material from where you are transferring the image to. Once the pressure and heat are released, the sublimation ink then returns to its solid state and the fabric pores close, trapping the ink inside.

Where is the sublimation machine best use for?

Our sublimation printing in Gurgaon, the printing method is best used on products like as polyester apparel in white or light colors or hard surfaces with a poly-coating, such as coasters, mugs, mouse pads and much more…

The sublimation process can only be used on 100% pure polyester material or materials with a special polymer coating. Sublimation printing is best for white or light colored fabrics. This may seem like a limited option, but polymer coated products can include coasters, mugs, mouse pads and more. So contact sublimation printing in Noida.
