Advanced CMYK Sublimation Ink Offset - SH-A

Profile of sublimation print offset inks
Sublimation inks are designed to apply a mirror image onto paper for transfer to the final substrate. The prints are transferred via heat and pressure onto most polyester or synthetic materials. When first printed onto paper, sublimation inks appear to be weaker and duller than standard inks, however when transferred onto suitable substrates, the dyes develop their true color strength and brilliance.

1. Use Principle
It is used on all kinds of offset machine. With the ink,first print image on paper, then transfer the image onto various materials by heat transfer press, especially for polyester fabric. Under high temperature, the ink will become gas and go into fabric.

2. Printing Techniques
OFFSET (one color, two color and four color machines).

3. Colors
CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black).

4. Specific Supports
Coated paper, offset paper, chrome paper, calendered paper from 70-80 gr/m² with dimensional stability.

5. Suitable Fabrics
Polyester fabric.
Triacetate fabric.
Nylon fabric.
Acrylic fabric.
Polypropylene nitrile fabric.

6. Application examples
a.To get 50%C on fabric,the color on paper should be 30%C
b.To make red PS-plate,the ratio is 100%M and 35%-40%Y
c.To make blue PS-plate,the ratio is 100%C and 20%M
d.To make green PS-plate,the ratio is 80%C and 90%Y
e.To get yellow like Asian skin,the ratio is 10%~11%M and a little cyan.Cyan can be adjusted according to your requirment.

7. Transfer temparature
About 180~220°C

8. Transfer time
About 15~40 seconds
