Definition of sublimation
From a scientific point of view, thermal sublimation is the process of direct transition of matter from solid to gaseous state. It does not pass through the usual liquid state and only occurs at specific temperatures and pressures
What is the working principle for sublimation workmanship?
The working principle of dye-sublimation is that the customer gives us the designed artwork, we make the pattern according to the size, print the pattern through the dye-sublimation paper printer, transfer the printed pattern to the item through high temperature, and complete the coloring after high temperature a process.
Advantages of sublimation
Dye-sublimation is a process of pressing at a high temperature of 170-220°C. Its advantages are high color saturation, fast shipping, strong color adhesion, and not easy to fade.
Sublimation production costs are low and is suitable for mass production.
Application fields of dye sublimation
Sublimation has a wide range of applications. Here are some common areas:
1. Clothing/fabrics: Dye-sublimation can make some personalized DIY short-sleeves, sweatshirts, hats, socks, etc.
2. Advertising: Dye-sublimation can produce some promotional advertisements, light boxes, etc.
3. Daily necessities: can make cups, customized mobile phone cases, gift boxes, etc.

The process of sublimation printer
1. Prepare the patterns that need to be printed and prepare the design artwork according to the size that needs to be printed.

Ordinary inkjet printing is only suitable for printing on some paper, such as some cardboard, documents, etc.
Can you use regular ink on sublimation paper?
Not
The process of sublimation transfer printing uses special sublimation ink and sublimation paper.
The common colors of sublimation ink are CMYK. Of course, if customers have special needs, we also have fluorescent colors to choose from.
