HaiYi PET film for DTF is a technology that transfers patterns from PET film to textiles through thermal transfer.<\/p>\n
Release layer: ensures that the film is easy to peel off after thermal transfer.
\nInk-absorbing layer: receives ink and forms patterns.
\nPET substrate: provides stability and temperature resistance (thickness is usually 50-100\u03bcm).<\/p>\n
2. Usage steps<\/p>\n
\u2460 Preparation before printing<\/p>\n
Use RIP software to generate CMYK+white channel files (dark fabrics require white ink as base).<\/p>\n
Choose water-based DTF ink or sublimation ink (depending on the type of fabric).<\/p>\n
\u2461 Printing pattern<\/p>\n
Print the pattern on the PET film through a digital printer, with a resolution of 1200DPI recommended.<\/p>\n
Drying method: Water-based ink needs to be dried (60-80\u2103, 3-5 minutes), and sublimation ink can be dried naturally.<\/p>\n
\u2462 Thermal transfer operation<\/p>\n
Equipment: flat heat press or roller transfer machine (recommended temperature 150-165\u2103, time 8-12 seconds, pressure 4-6kg).
\nSteps:
\na. Lay the fabric flat and cover it with high-temperature paper (to protect the fiber).
\nb. Align the pattern side down, and quickly tear off the film after hot pressing (hot tearing) or tear it off after cooling (cold tearing).
\n\u2463 Post-processing
\nHighly elastic fabrics can be baked at 40\u2103 for 3 minutes to improve adhesion.<\/p>\n
3. Core advantages<\/p>\n
Color expression Supports high-saturation colors and gradients, and the color gamut covers 95% of Adobe RGB.
\nWashability No obvious fading after 30 machine washes at 40\u2103 (water-based ink), sublimation ink has higher washability.
\nFabric compatibility Suitable for cotton, polyester, blended and special coated fabrics (pretreatment agent is required).
\nProduction efficiency Single piece transfer time <20 seconds, suitable for small batch orders.
\nCost-effectiveness No plate making is required, and consumables cost is low (PET film price is about \uffe520-40\/m\u00b2).
\nEnvironmental protection Water-based ink has no VOCs and meets OEKO-TEX\u00ae Standard 100 certification.<\/p>\n
4. Common specifications<\/p>\n
Thickness of film 50\u03bcm (standard), 75\u03bcm (high hiding), 100\u03bcm (3D effect)
\nWidth\/length A4 (210\u00d7297mm), A3+ (329\u00d7483mm), roll (30m\/roll) or single sheet
\nInk type Water-based DTF ink, sublimation thermal transfer ink
\nPrinting resolution 600-1200 DPI (recommended 1200 DPI)
\nTransfer parameters Temperature 150-165\u2103, time 8-12 seconds, pressure 4-6kg
\nStretch resistance Can withstand 20-30% stretching of fabric without deformation (depending on ink and pretreatment agent)<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
