Factors That Affect The Drying Time Of Sublimation Transfer Paper

Sublimation plays an increasingly important role in digital printing industry due to its advantages of low cost, environmental protection and sublimation transfer. Sublimation transfer paper is an essential medium for sublimation printing. Now, I will have a brief analysis to the reason about the factors that effect the drying time of sublimation transfer paper.

By sublimation the coating is a functional part of the sublimation paper, which plays several important roles in absorbing the dye sublimation separation dye sublimation and base paper to prevent the dye sublimation from penetrating into the paper base and absorbing water in the sublimation ink. The third function is the drying process.

In the sublimation coating, there is a portion called a “water removal layer” which helps to handle the drying of the paper once the sublimation paper is printed. We use water-based sublimation inks, which means the carrier is water. Only when the water is exhausted, all sublimation dyes remain on the surface and the sublimation transfer results will be as good as expected. This is why we always emphasize the reason why sublimation paper must be completely dry during transfer; otherwise, the result of the transfer will not be good, because when the paper is still wet, all sublimation dyes cannot be transferred to the fabric. So how does the “dehydration layer” work?

There are many small holes in the layer that removes water, and the ink-receiving layer absorbs the dyes and sublimates the pores in the layer that removes water, which will absorb water or solvent (if used, sublimate ink solvent type) quickly, helping the paper to dry very much. fast. Those small holes are round, or like a ball, with a diameter of 0.3-2 um. According to our research, spheres can help absorb water or solvents more than other forms, so all SKYIMAGE sublimation papers use this formula.

The content of the water removal layer is about 2-3 grams. It may be too much or less. If it is small, it does not absorb moisture or solvent in time, and the paper dries very slowly. Nor can it be too much, because if too many balls, dye sublimation absorbs all water or solvent and then absorbs, then these dye sublimation can not be transmitted, the transmission results will not be very good.
