Why Choose Sublimation Paper and How it works on Fabric
Feiyue sublimation Paper provides the tool in which to create, design and produce an unlimited number of unique, and personalised garments, limited only by imagination. The quality is second to none, and the colours are vibrant and alive. Garments are colour fast, and because of the processes used, are not susceptible to fading and wash out. Sublimation is ideal for long or short runs, and with our “IN HOUSE” design team, there are no hidden set up charges or artwork charges.
The basic dye sublimation process uses special heat-sensitive dyes to print graphics, text and virtually any image onto special transfer paper. The sublimation paper is then placed on the pre-cut fabric pattern and both are placed into a heat press machine.
When the heating cycle is completed, the image on the sublimation paper has been transferred to the item and has actually reformed into or underneath the surface.
Run your finger across the surface of a sublimated garment and you will feel nothing.
The reason for this is that sublimation is always done on a polyester, polymer, or polymer-coated item, in the case of team uniforms 100% polyester garments.
At high temperatures, the solid dye converts into a gas without ever becoming a liquid. The same high temperature opens the pores of the polyester fabric 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 fabric.
This is why dye sublimation paper can’t be done on natural materials, such as 100% cotton. Natural fibers and non-coated materials which have no "pores" to open cannot accept the gas vapor. The dye particles are designed to bond with polyester, and ignore everything else. It is like trying to mix oil and water with most natural materials.
A dye impregnates color into a material and this color change is permanent. Sublimation refers to the change from the solid, to the gaseous state without becoming liquid.
Dye sublimation paper refers to solid dye particles that are changed into gas using heat and pressure, which then bond with any polymers present and change back into a solid.
