Silicone ink PET films:
Two types:one is glossy coating film which will be glossy after heating press on fabric,another one is matte finish effect afterheating press on fabric.
Mesh number:120-200,Mesh(screen film )thickness 0.1-0.2MM,it is depends on printing Artworks.Squeegee:65-80 degree.
Printing tips:
1.Silicone ink color layer printing for 3-4 layers:
Silicone ink XG-866A-2Y 100G
Pigments or special powders 10-20G(10-20%white&fluorescent 15-20%other colors 10%)
Catalyst XG-866B-22G 2%
Thinner XG-128AH 10-20G 10-20%
Flash by 100 to120 degree.
2.Silicone ink clear layer printing 2 -4 layers if needed for high density stickers,if need more high density then print
more times clear:
Silicone ink XG-866A-2Y 100G
Catalyst XG-866B-22G 2%
Thinner XG-128AH 10-20G 10-20%
3.Transparent silicone with catalyst and adhesion agent with harder layer printing:
1).Silicone ink XG-866A-2Y 100G
Catalyst XG-866B-21-2G 1-2%
2).Bonding agent A XG-180A 50G
Bonding agent B XG-180B 5G 10%
Mixing together for printing :Bonding agent AB according to silicone is 50%.Bonding agent B is harder can get silicone inkdry,so if need longer printing time then get silicone catalyst mixing ratio 1%or no need silicone catalyst.Printing wet on wet for 2 times,keep 100%wet can not heat:
4.Spill hot melt powder on wet silicone and adhesion agent layer immediately.
5.After finish,to put into the oven to bake by 100-120 degree for about 10 minutes,if bake higher temp then lesstime,once hot melt powder 100%melt then it is ok.
6.Press the stick on the heat transfer press machine by the temp of 160-170 degree for 10-16 seconds with pressureof 4KG.TIPS:Kindly doing test before the bulk goods printing every time.
