Introduction to Textile and Garment Printing Technology - Screen Flocking Printing Silicone
Screen printing flocking printing is a unique three-dimensional printing process that creates a fine fiber fluff effect on the surface of the fabric, forming a furry pattern.
The principle of this process involves using an electrostatic flocking machine to apply the fluff to the surface of the silicone printing. The fluff is evenly attached to the silicone, forming a flocking layer. Finally, the material is cured at high temperature.
The characteristics of flocking printing include a strong three-dimensional pattern, bright colors, soft touch, wear resistance, and washability.
Flocking printing is suitable for a variety of fabrics, such as cotton, linen, and polyester, and is widely used in the textile and garment industries. Flocking printing not only enhances the visual appeal of the product but also provides a unique tactile experience.
Screen Printing Flocking Silicone is a special silicone used in screen printing technology that creates a flocking effect. The following outlines its characteristics, applications, and other important features:
Characteristics:
Moderate viscosity, ensuring no glue flow or dripping during screen printing, which guarantees the clarity and accuracy of the screen-printed design.
Adhesion:
It bonds well with various textiles such as cotton, linen, and spandex. After printing, the pattern has strong adhesion and is resistant to peeling, making it durable and not easy to fall off.
Fluff Adhesion:
The silicone has excellent compatibility with the fluff effect and passes brand washability and both dry and wet friction tests. Even after multiple washes and friction, the printed pattern remains intact.
Excellent Physical Properties:
The silicone features high transparency, tear resistance, minimal shrinkage, and additional properties like waterproofing, anti-slip, breathability, and resistance to high and low temperatures. These qualities make the printed products more versatile and durable.
