How does sublimation printing ink work on cotton fabric ?

At the present time , cotton is not suitable for sublimation transfers .

So first we need to print polyester coating on cotton .

Use method of Polyester coating : spray finishing or silk screen it well-proportionally on blank cotton fabric ( only spray or silk-screen on the image area for need to transfer printing is ok , please do this before transfer printing sublimation ink on cotton ). after finishing , make it drying . please kindly note to that the thickness of Polyester Coating on cotton will be directly effect the final test result .

Use method of subimation ink sample ( we can offer sample sublimation ink ) :  use a small roller with our ink , roll-coat ink sample on newsprint paper or art paper or offset paper , make it drying .

Then put the dried paper with ink on polyester coating cotton , and with printed surface facing downwards on the coated surface of cotton .

Put both them in the heat press  , with 190-210 centi degree and 20-30 seconds , and presure  ,  in this process the rotogravure ink sublimates i.e. converts to gaseous form and gets desposited "into"

the surface of coated cotton , the final products will be finished . please reference the sample fabric specimen

 ( we can offer sample if  you need ).
