1. Sublimation Paper


 Sublimation transfer paper is applicable to sublimation transfer, on which can print images with mirror reversal through inkjet printing, flat printing, screen printing and gravure printing. Then transfer the image onto media by heating and pressuring, which can make ink on the paper become gaseous state and combine with the media.

 Sublimation is the process of changing physical states from solid to a gas while bypassing the liquid phase. In sublimation paper printing, the sublimation inks are formulated to vaporize at certain high temperatures. This quick release of the sublimation inks is what allows the transfer of such fine detail and brilliant color.

 Usually, sublimation paper for polyester spandex fabric, you need inkjet printing and special sublimation ink, heat press machine to your sublimation printing.

2. Heat Transfer Paper

Heat transfer paper is applicable to heat transfer, on which can print images through flat printing or gravure printing, and then combine with media by heating and pressuring in order to transfer image onto media.

 Heat transfer paper is used for cotton material fabric mainly for tshirt. The cotton content over 70%, we recommend to use heat transfer paper. As the t-shirts/fabric is with different colors, so the transfer paper is with different types for different color t-shirts/fabric.

 Transfer paper has two types: dark and light. Dark transfer paper could be used to dark t-shirts/fabric, like black, red, brown, etc.. Light transfer paper could be used to light t-shirts/fabric, like light yellow, white, light pink, etc.. Also, as the paper is with light and dark, which could be used for different kind of printer.

  Hi, Nice to see you. How are you these days ? Long time no talking about the sublimation paper. If you have read about my article before you must know that we are professional in sublimation printing and transferring, also have have the sublimation paper manufacturer. Then with so many experience today I will solve a common problem of all of you and help you know more about sublimation. That is the difference introduce about the sublimation paper and heat transfer paper.   The main reason why people can't distinguish the sublimation paper and heat transfer paper is that they can all be used for patterns transfer onto the fabric and textile.The main difference is how the image physically gets to the substrate in the actual transfer process. This means there are also differences in the items that may be decorated with either process. In order to let you have a deep understanding about them I will have a detailed introduce in the next article. Then read the following an...

What’s the Difference Between Sticky Sublimation Transfer Paper And Sublimation Paper?

For sublimation transfer paper , we generally divide it into 2 types: the fast dry sublimation paper and the sticky sublimation paper. But most people just know the fast dry sublimation paper, because the applications of sticky paper is limited. But sometimes, sticky paper is also important. Tacky sublimation paper is one type of sublimation paper with a tackified coating. The tackified coating will be activated by heat. After the tackified coating is activated, it will adhere to the textile very firmly, so after the transfer is finished and when you lift the press up, the paper will still firmly adhere to the textile, it prevents the paper and textile from moving, the ghosting will not occur. The tacky paper is mostly used in stretch material such as lycra, the stretch material has a elastic, it is much easier moving during the transfer. But even though you are using the stretch material , doesn’t mean you still need to us tacky sublimation paper, that depends on the heat pres...
