Silicone transfer logo making by hot melt powder
Printing vidoe:
XG heat transfer silicone by hot melt powder
Pinting tips:
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 after heating 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:
- Silicone ink color layer printing for 3-4 layers : Silicone ink XG-866A-2Y mixing with 3-15% pigments or special powders, and 2% catalyst XG-866B-1 or fast dry catalyst XG-866B-2 ,then 0-10% thinner XG-128A if needed. Cure by 100 to120 degree.
- Silicone ink layer printing 2 -4 layers if needed for high density stickers : Silicone ink XG-866A-2Y mixing 2% catalyst XG-866B-1 or fast dry catalyst XG-866B-2 ,then 0-10 % Thinner XG-128A. Cure by 100-120 degree .
- Transparent silicone with catalyst and adhesion agent with harder layer printing:
1). Silicone ink XG-866A-2Y mixing 2% catalyst XG-866B-1 or fast dry catalyst XG-866B-2
2)adhesion agent XG-180A to mix with 10% adhesion agent harder XG-180B
Means: silicone ink 100G with catalyst : adhesion agent 50G with adhesion agent harder = 100:50= 2:1
Silicone ink XG-866A-2Y with catalyst and adhesion agent with harder mixing ratio: 2:1 to print wet on wet for 2 times， no need heating keep 100% wet:
- Spill hot melt powder on wet silicone and adhesion agent layer.
- After finish, put into the oven to bake by 130degree for 10-20 minutes
- Press the stick on the heat transfer press machine by the temp of 150 -160 degree for 12-20 seconds with pressure of 4KG.
