TDS of Chameleon & Glitter Powder High-Density Glossy Silicone
Preparation:
- Mesh&Squeegee: 100-120(40-48T) Mesh number; 65-75 degree Squeegee.
- : Pigments added ratio: For white and fluorescent color 20%, other colors 10%
- Chameleon, Thermochromic Glitter powders, mixing ratio 3-10%
- Catalyst mixing ratio:2% slow dry XG-866B-1 and fast dry XG-866B-2 can mix together for use.
- Thinner XG-128A adding ratio:0-20%
- Heating Temp and time: Flash cure temp: 100℃- 120℃ for 6-10 seconds, Drying temp: 120℃- 130℃ for about 2 -3 minutes.
Silicone ink printing tips:
- HD silicone XG-866A/866AH for under coating and high density printing for 2 times :
HD silicone XG-866A/866AH 50G
Fast dry catalyst XG-866B-2 1G 2% If machine printing to use slow dry catalyst.
Silicone thinner XG-128AH thinner is not necessary for hand printing,5-20% is enough for machine printing. Cure by temp of 120℃ 6-10 seconds.
If fabric with hairy or want to get a more smooth effect kindly assist by heat press machine or iron after first time printing. After printing keep wet to heat press by temp 150-170 degrees for 10-20 seconds.
2. Dark Color effect silicone printing for 2 times :
HD silicone XG-866A/866AH 50G
Black color pigment XG-501 5G 10%
Fast dry catalyst XG-866B-2 1G 2% If machine printing to use slow dry catalyst.
Silicone thinner XG-128AH thinner is not necessary for hand printing,5-10% is enough for machine printing. Cure by temp of 120℃ 6-10 seconds.
3. Chameleon powder /glitter powder printing for 3 times
Round silicone XG-866A-2Y 50G
Silicone thinner XG-128AH 10G
Chameleon or glitter powder 5G 10%
Fast dry catalyst XG-866B-2 1G 2%
4. Glossy silicone ink or matte silicone ink for top coating:
A, Glossy top coating Wet on wet printing for 2 times:
Glossy silicone ink XG-399-3 50G
Fast dry catalyst XG-866B-2 1G 2% It will be better to use slow dry catalyst XG-866B-1 and fast dry half and half. If for machine printing to use slow dry catalyst.
Silicone thinner XG-128AH thinner is not necessary for hand printing,5-10% is enough for machine printing. Cure by temp of 100-110℃ 10-25 seconds Have to get silicone bubbles out first ,try to use code wind to support and it will be better to use low temp by longer heating time. To avoid
B, Matte top coating for 1 time:
Matte silicone XG-866M 50G
Fast dry catalyst XG-866B-2 1G 2% If machine printing to use slow dry catalyst.
Silicone thinner XG-128AH thinner is not necessary for hand printing,5-10% is enough for machine printing. Cure by temp of 120℃ 6-10 seconds.
After printing finish, to heat by 120℃- 140℃ for about 2 -5 minutes.
