Product Description
60ml Samples of InkTec Sublinova Smart Dye Sublimation ink allow
users to try these inks before buying the larger sizes.
These inks are specifically
designed for traditional heat transfer printing on transfer paper.
They are also used in more specialised Direct to Garment Printers.
InkTec's High quality manufacturing standards mean no head clogging, the particlulate size
of dispersive dyes is under 100nm (0.1um) and the use of high-class
dyes to keep their colour shade in harsh conditions. SubliNova Smart
inks have superior printing quality under a wide variety of printing
environments. InkTec have been developing and supplying dye sublimation,
water-based dye & pigment, solvent, eco solvent, mild solvent, and
oil inks for over 20 Years. Maintaining the strictest quality control
systems.
Based on the inkjet technology used in everything from regular office
printers to printers for outdoors. With our systems, cutting-edge
analysis instruments and experimental apparatus. All products are
developed for accurate compatibility and highest possible quality
comparable with the products supplied by the printer manufacturers.
Not only do InkTec hold many ink technology patents, we have precise
knowledge on printer structures and so provide a better quality
than other manufacturers who may use lower-priced raw material and
more simple formulations. InkTec develops and manufactures various
inks, such as sublimation ink for textile printing and soft signage
market, water-based dye & pigment, solvent, eco solvent, mild solvent
and oil ink.
Total solutions for actual image printing, from inks, media, parts.
Sublimation Ink SubliNova, InkTec’s dye sublimation ink that presents
the highest printing quality, developed from many years’ of knowledge
of ink research, cutting-edge equipment and technology.
The dispersed dye in the ink is evenly distributed and enables rich
color expression, and the ink fluidity is excellent to enable stable
printing ability in different environments. SubliNova sublimation
ink uses harmless environmentally-friendly dyes, and has been certified
as environmentally friendly by an International test agency. SubliNova
HI-liTE achieves Eco Passport by Oeko-Tex® Association. This means
that it has no harmful effects on human health or on the environment.
InkTec's Direct Textile / Heat Transfer ink has been developed on
the base of the 12 year ink development know-how, and InkTec has
supplied the suitable ink to the large-format printer applying the
technology possessed. The Ink has been formulated to make images
transfer well by using heat and pressure, that the colour on the
substrates can be deep and brilliant. For smooth ink flow without
head clogging, moreover, we make particle size of dispersive dyes
smaller under 100nm (0.1um) and use high quality dyes in light-resistance
grade to keep the colour. Now, you can get long lasting head and
colour.

Do you want to print on hard surfaces such as
porcelain mugs, plastic plates then Dye Sublimation printing is the answer!
Dye Sublimation is the method of applying an image
to specially coated ceramics, metals and polyester cloth, using three main
ingredients: sublimation ink, heat and pressure.
Sublimation ink is unique in its ability to convert
from a solid to a gas without going through a liquid form. (Just like dry
ice.) The conversion is initiated by heat and controlled with pressure and
time. Hard items such as ceramic, fibre board, metals, etc. require a
special coating to accept the sublimation inks. You must purchase the mugs,
tiles, metals, etc. with the coating already on them, it is not something
you can coat yourself. When you apply to 100% polyester (e.g mouse mats) you
do not need any coating, it is applied directly to the 100% polyester
fabric.
You can purchase
dye sublimation ink recommended only for Piezo Head
technology used in Epson / Mimaki / Mutoh ink jet printers to do sublimation printing. Epson do not supply the printers with
these specialty sublimation inks but by installing a Bulk Feed system, or
refillable cartridges, for example
you can use the sublimation inks - these you can readilly buy from many specialist ink suppliers.
You may also need the heat transfer paper that you would need to print with these inks. The heat transfer
paper for sublimation printing has a coating on it. This is so the inks do not soak into the paper. After
you print the transfer paper it is then placed on the product to be applied
with a heat press.
PLEASE NOTE:
You can switch your printer back to using regular inks at any time. However,
it is not practical to switch back and forth. If you are setting up a
Sublimation Printing System you should not
expect to use the same printer for other purposes.
Dye
sublimation is a process that uses a special heat sensitive dye to print
graphics and text onto paper. This is called a transfer. The paper is then
placed on a sublimatible item and both are placed into a heat press for
about 20~45 seconds at 180-230 degrees.
When the cycle (sublimation) is completed, the image on the paper has
transferred to the item and has actually become a part of the surface. If
you run your finger across the surface of a sublimated plate you will feel
nothing.
The reason for this is that sublimation is always done on a polyester,
polymer, or polymer coated item. At high temperatures, the solid dye
converts into a gas without ever becoming a liquid. The same high
temperature opens the pores of the polymer and allows the gas to enter. When
the temperature drops, the pores close and the gas reverts to a solid state.
It has now become a part of the polymer.
For this reason, true dye sublimation cannot be done on natural materials,
like 100% cotton. Natural fibers and non-coated materials have no "pores" to
open.
Inkjet printers use a liquid filled inkjet cartridge that has a suspension
of the dye in it and requires transfers to be printed on special coated
inkjet paper. The printer should be dedicated to sublimation, as the
cartridges cannot be easily or cheaply switched with regular cartridges, for
regular document printing.
Dye Sublimation Inks
Dye
Sublimation Ink has been used in printing on the materials as Mug, Tile,
Wood, Polyester, Nylon, Plastic, etc that are impossible with normal digital
printing.
After printing an image on the transfer paper, it is then transferred using the high pressures and temperatures
Characteristics
Dye Sublimation Inks have the
characteristics of dyes. It is different with digital printer inks. The
brilliance and clearness of an image has been influenced by sublimation of
the ink. Sublimation's ink can be realize the customer's needs that get
more brilliance and clearness colour by even sublimation of all colour on the
wide range of the temperature about from 160°C to 180°C compared with
existing dye sublimation ink.
It is possible to transfer with a temperature as low as 160°C and can be applied to
all kinds of materials. Also Dye Sublimation
solves the problem of precipitation that existing dye sublimation has and
InkTec Heat Transfer ink has durability and there is no appearance of spreading on the
materials. Also, it is excellent for colour brightness and exposure and there
is no difference of the tone of colour compare with general inkjet
