1. Different properties
(1) Properties of heat transfer ink: mainly used for heat transfer printing products.
(2) Nature of sublimation ink: The printing process in which sublimation heat transfer ink is transferred to the fabric by transfer paper.
2. Different characteristics
(1) Characteristics of heat transfer ink: when printing with pigment ink, even if printing on ordinary paper, ink will not be blotted. Moreover, because the pigment itself is waterproof, it is not easy to be decomposed by ultraviolet light, making it water resistant and light resistant. Even if it is used outdoors, the printed matter can be kept for more than one year without obvious fading signs.
(2) Features of sublimation ink: the pattern printed by this process is rich in layers, bright in color, ever-changing, with small color difference and good reproducibility. The image will not fall off, crack or fade, and is wear-resistant and sunscreen, so sublimation heat transfer products have greater durability advantages.
It can achieve the effect required by the designer and is suitable for batch production; The transfer printing process transfers the exquisite patterns on the transfer film to the product surface through one-time processing (heating and embossing) of the transfer machine. After forming, the ink layer and the product surface are integrated, which is lifelike and beautiful, and greatly improves the product grade.
