SUBLIMATION COMPOSITE PRINTING ON FABRICS

摘要

Composite printing is employed to transfer foreground (12) and background (14) dot colors from an electrostatic surface (26) to a fabric substrate (16) by sublimation under action of heat and pressure. Dots (28) are formed by a digital printing and are configured to have a concave cross section (30) which sublimes at its lowest point first enabling implosion sublimation transfer of dots without substantial dot gain.
