How to determine the four-color offset sublimation printing



How to determine the four-color offset sublimation printing color sequence?

Four-color offset sublimation printing ink is characterized by a wet-wet state transfer, all the color sequence alignment,
first, take into account of the viscosity of the four-color ink relationship between each other. If the latter color ink viscosity
greater than the previous one color, in the case of the surface of the drum may be the first against each other in the same
color ink dot overlap is not printed, the former is often the same color ink flaking. This makes the printing ink can not be fully
transferred to the first color of ink, but also to make the same color of ink before the ink is mixed in the same color, resulting
in a mixing phenomenon, therefore, the same color of ink viscosity should generally slightly less than the pro-same color ink,
it is not easy to produce color mixing phenomenon.
 
Secondly, the sublimation offset ink dry before infiltration condensate determine color sequence also need to consider fixing
fast printing ink onto the paper, low-viscosity component and its link to feed a large number of solvent penetration into the paper
momentary gap, leaving high viscosity ingredients and synthetic resin wrapped into a gel state fixed pigment in the paper surface.
By fixing the ink penetrate the surface of the paper layer, which greatly increase the cohesion, so that if the viscosity of the ink is
slightly larger than the second color ink of the first color mixing phenomenon does not occur, so that the printing conditions of
infiltration with large transient four-color printing can be reduced the mixing phenomenon, for four-color printing color sequence
arrangement is also provided for convenience.

Product Description

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.

Advantages
(1)Good stability on the machine,clear dot reproduction,excellent ink-water balance.
(2)Be able to adapt to the demand for middle-speed or high-speed printing.
(3)During the normal condition, use the ink on the machine directly.

Products application

Use Scope

Offset (one color, two color and four color machines)

Suitable Fabrics

Polyester fabric, Triacetate fabric, Nylon fabric, Acrylic fabric, Polypropylene nitrile.

 Typical Uses of  Zhongliqi Sublimation Offset Ink

Surfboards , Skateboards , Snowboards , Skies , Custom Furniture , Interior Design , 3D dye sublimation applications,
sublimation aluminum sheet , key rings , display products , plates , mugs , ceramic etc.

Use method

conditional attribute

(1)Be able to adapt to the demand for middle-speed or high-speed printing.
(2)During the normal condition, use the ink on the machine directly.

The printing process just needs 3 steps
(1)Print the image on paper, and normal paper is ok.
(2)Put the printed paper on substrate, such as polyester and nylon fabric.
(3)Put the paper and fabric on the heat-transfer machine. When the temperature reaches 180-220°C, the image will
be transfer printed from paper onto the substrate.

 

 

Application notice

Transfer Paper
Coated paper, offset paper,chrome paper and calendered paper.
Transfer paper should be 80-90 gr/m2 with dimensional stability.

Transfer temparature

About 185~220°C

Transfer time
About 10~30 seconds

Transfer pressure

0.5kg/cm2

Since sublimation ink belongs to gas shading, then the colour showing on paper and the colour showing on fabric are different.
So when we make  PS-plate, the CMYK ratio is different from normal offset plate making.
