Solvent Dye Sublimation Ink

Dye sublimation ink

Solvent dye sublimation inks are basically pigments suspended in an oil base, but of course there are other stabilizers and surfactants in the mix. Solvent inks may contain a chloride-vinyl acetate copolymer at 2-6%, a polymeric amide at 0-4%, a ethyl acetate at 0-4%, 2-methoxy-1-mthylethyl at 0-1.25%, N-butyl acetate at 0-2.5%, and Butan-2-OL at 0-0.5%. There will also be a distillate at 0-3%, and at least one subliminal disperse dye at a rate of 0.25% to 9%, which must be insoluble in either an included ether or acetate. Propylene glycol must be included in the range of 0% to 2%, and an additional acetate will make up 78% to 95% of the solution. This entire solvent based dye sublimation ink solution must, when mixed properly, be able to flow through the head of an ink jet printer in order to function properly.

 

Aqueous Dye Sublimation Ink

In aqueous dye sublimation ink, water is the solvent in which the pigments and other ingredients are suspended, and the water will typically make up 30-95% of the weight of the ink. The dye particles make up 1-10% of the solution, and must have a melting point of 200 degrees Celsius or higher. 5% to 40% of the solution may be a co-solvent such as glycerol, propylene glycol, and dipropylene glycol. 0.01% to 5% of the weight will be a surfactant, which will reduce the tension between the other ingredients and act as an emulsifier. The solution will also include a biocide such as Procel GXL as a preservative, at 0.01% to 5% of the final product’s weight.

 

Applications of sublimation ink

● Ideal for transfer print onto fabric with more than 60% chemical fibers.

● Provides unlimited design potential for a wide range of applications for signage and apparel printing including T-shirt, Home furnishing flags, banners, sportswear, swimwear etc.

What is the Difference Between These Three Print Heads?

On the surface, it is a question of print head selection. In-depth understanding is actually an application problem for different inks and different market needs. To better improve the consistency and coordination with boards, inks, and media, this should be the original intention of Epson I3200 series print heads divided into water-based, UV, eco-solvent and other different types, with targeted subdivision. Water-based is easier to understand. I don’t think anyone would want to use water-based print heads for UV and eco-solvent (oil-based) solutions. It is almost impossible to get high viscosity and low sheet UV inks through water-based print heads and obtain good control. At the same time, the life of the print head must be considered in this process. We will not discuss unconventional thinking too much. Because that road has been verified by history: this road is nowhere. Then  Uv Ink Manufacturer  will focus on the difference between UV print head and oil-based eco-solvent...

What do you Know About Eco-Solvent Ink?

Eco-solvent ink, or environmentally friendly solvent ink, is a new type of outdoor solvent inkjet with high safety, low volatility, low toxicity and high flash point that has been popular in the outdoor solvent-based digital inkjet market in recent years. Ink, its development has not stalled. At present, some people have put forward higher requirements and developed it into a green solvent outdoor inkjet. It is required to have a boiling point higher than 150°C and a closed cup flash point higher than 65°C. As a   Uv Ink Manufacturer , I would like to share with you. ESL Eco Solvent Ink Advantage Compared with solvent-based inks, the biggest advantage of eco-solvent inks is environmental friendliness, which is mainly reflected in the reduction of volatile matter VOC and the elimination of many toxic organic solvents, which are no longer needed in the production workshop of eco-solvent inkjet printers. Ventilation device. Eco-solvent ink not only maintains the advantages of high-pre...
