Anti-sublimation silicone is a special type of silicone material whose main function is to prevent color sublimation. The following is a detailed explanation of anti-sublimation silicone:
1. Definition and function
Definition: Anti-sublimation silicone is a specially treated silicone material that can prevent color from sublimating (or migrating) from one material to another under high temperature or specific conditions.
Function: Mainly used for dark fabrics, especially those that are easy to fade or sublimate, to prevent the fabric color from sublimating to the surface of the silicone lettering film or other materials, thereby ensuring the quality and appearance of the product.
2. Application scenarios
Clothing accessories: Anti-sublimation silicone is often used in the thermal transfer process of clothing labels and clothing patterns to ensure that the LOGO or pattern will not blur or change color due to color sublimation after high-temperature ironing.
Sports goods: In sports goods such as shoelace decoration anti-slip and socks anti-slip, anti-sublimation silicone can ensure color stability and is not easy to fall off.
Luggage and bag labels: Anti-sublimation silicone is also often used in labels and bag decorations of bags such as handbags and travel bags to ensure color durability after long-term use.
3. Product Features
Anti-sublimation performance: It can effectively prevent color sublimation and ensure the color stability and durability of the product.
High elasticity and washable and wear-resistant: Anti-sublimation silicone usually has the characteristics of high elasticity, washable and wear-resistant, and is suitable for various occasions that require frequent cleaning and use.
Easy to transfer and easy to engrave and tear: During the thermal transfer process, anti-sublimation silicone is easy to transfer, and the engraving film is easy to tear off without leaving any residue.
4. Usage
Thermal transfer heat transfer silicone process: Print silicone on PET, then print silicone anti-sublimation on the surface of silicone, then print the silicone middle layer, and finally print silicone hot melt adhesive. After baking at a certain temperature and time, iron it on the clothing fabric.
Silicone printing process: First print silicone primer on the fabric, then print anti-sublimation silicone, and finally print color silicone.
In summary, anti-sublimation silicone is a silicone material with special functions. It can effectively prevent color sublimation and ensure the quality and appearance of the product. It has a wide range of applications in clothing accessories, sports goods, and luggage labels.
