How many type DTF powder have ?
With the rapid development of digital technology, digital transfer printing (Direct-to-Film, DTF) technology, as an innovative printing method, is gradually changing the face of the textile printing industry. With its high precision, high efficiency and environmental protection characteristics, DTF technology has shown great potential in the fields of personalized customization, fashion and high-end home textiles. In this technology, DTF powder is one of the key materials, and its quality and type directly affect the visual effect and performance of the final product. This article will explore the two types of coarse powder and fine powder in DTF powder, as well as their unique advantages and application scenarios in DTF printing.
Basic analysis of DTF powder of OCB company
DTF powder, as the name suggests, is a special powder material designed for DTF printing technology, mainly composed of a mixture of pigments, resins and additives. These powders are precisely attached to the pre-treated PET film through the principle of electrostatic adsorption to form a color layer of the desired pattern, which is then transferred to the fabric surface by hot pressing to achieve permanent fixation of the pattern. The selection of DTF powder is crucial to ensure the clarity, color saturation and wear and wash resistance of the pattern.
Some customers have questions about the coarse powder and fine powder of OCB?
Coarse powder
Features: The particles are relatively large, with strong covering power, and can quickly fill large areas. It is suitable for printing rough and textured patterns.
Advantages: Due to the large particles, coarse powder can form a more obvious sense of grain during the printing process, giving the pattern a unique texture, especially suitable for those designs that pursue retro, industrial style or special texture effects.
Application scenarios: Suitable for outdoor clothing, sports equipment, workwear and other products that need to emphasize durability and visual impact.
Fine powder
Features: Fine particles, evenly distributed, can present a more delicate and smooth pattern effect, and the color transition is natural.
Advantages: The high-resolution characteristics of fine powder enable it to perfectly reproduce fine patterns and complex color gradients, which is very suitable for printing high-definition portraits, landscape photos and high-saturation fashion patterns. At the same time, the patterns printed by fine powder are also softer and more comfortable to the touch.
Application scenarios: Widely used in women's clothing, children's clothing, home furnishings and other fields that require high pattern fineness and color reproduction.
Selection strategy
When choosing DTF powder, designers and manufacturers need to consider comprehensively according to specific needs. If you pursue the three-dimensional sense and rough style of the pattern, coarse powder is a good choice; if you focus on the delicacy, color richness and detail expression of the pattern, fine powder is more suitable. In addition, considering cost-effectiveness and environmental protection, you should also choose a DTF powder supplier with stable quality and environmental protection standards.
Conclusion
DTF powder is one of the core materials of DTF printing technology. Its coarse powder and fine powder have their own advantages, providing designers with rich creative space. With the continuous advancement of technology and the increasing segmentation of the market, the performance and application range of DTF powder will continue to expand, bringing more possibilities to the textile printing industry. In the future, we have reason to believe that DTF technology and its supporting materials will play a more important role in personalized customization and leading fashion trends.
