Оновлено: 20.11.2024 In addition to natural ones, a variety of synthetic materials and fabrics from mixed fibers are actively used for sewing clothes, making decor and household items. T-shirts, raglans, pants, sweaters, hoodies and other elements are successfully sewn from them. Modern technologies allow printing a picture on almost everything that surrounds us. Printing is the most popular among fabrics:
- on polyester;
- on fleece;
- on microfiber;
- on nylon;
- on viscose
Features of printing on acrylic
Products made of this material have many advantages. They dry quickly, even after drawing. Paints are evenly distributed on the surface, providing excellent print quality. The finished image acquires a special brightness and is very resistant to the influence of external factors. It does not crack or burn out. The features of acrylic allow you to give the drawings depth and expressiveness.
The variety of colors and technologies opens up enormous opportunities for the consumer. Using the possessions of modernity, you can create interesting effects on the surface of acrylic – matte and textured images, shiny prints, embossed or contrasting patterns. Printing on acrylic is very durable. It does not deteriorate under the influence of ultraviolet light, low or high humidity, and temperature changes. Thus, clothing and textiles with prints on acrylic can be successfully used both indoors and outdoors. The material is easy to process in the form of canvases or ready-made clothes. Overall, acrylic printing is a great way to create aesthetically pleasing and durable decorative items for a variety of uses.
Features of printing on polyester
Polyester in its appearance and properties is very similar to silk. It is thin and smooth, almost does not absorb moisture and does not heat up. Polyester products (clothing, household and decorative items) do not wrinkle, are easy to wash and dry quickly. A mixture of polyester and elastane is especially advantageous. Such a canvas is more durable and slightly elastic.
Polyester has a very smooth surface, which allows the paint to be absorbed well and firmly fixed on it. This ensures brightness, saturation and durability of colors. The material is ideal for printing, because it quickly absorbs ink and dries, which speeds up the production of textiles.
The smooth texture of polyester allows you to print detailed images and fine lines. Textile products receive a very effective and high-quality design. The pattern on polyester “holds up” well, withstanding frequent washing and long-term use. That is why T-shirts, caps and flags are actively made from it. Polyester is considered a universal material.
Features of printing on fleece
The texture of the fleece is soft and porous. Fleece clothing cannot be called ideal if you evaluate it as a basis for printing. Due to the high pile, the prints on the fleece are not very clear. Their contrast is low. In order for the drawing to be as attractive as possible, it should be simple. This is about a small number of elements of a large size. If the customer wants to put an inscription, it is done in bold, because small parts and thin lines look extremely unclear.
The fleece is strong and wear-resistant. It has good air permeability and high hygroscopicity. Fleece clothes are easy to wash and easy to care for, durable and do not lose color even after long-term use, if you choose the right printing method that will allow the dye to be evenly distributed and well fixed to the fibers. In addition, it is worth considering that high temperature can damage the texture. Fleece absorbs paint faster than other fabrics because of its porous structure. Printing on fleece is always a challenge, but with the right approach and the use of modern technologies, you can achieve high-quality results.
Features of printing on microfiber
Microfiber washes well and absorbs moisture well, so it is often used for the production of napkins. And it is also perfect for sublimation printing. During printing, the ink is evenly distributed over the surface, forming a clear and bright pattern. High absorption provides color saturation and image depth. This is especially important when printing on dark or colored background fabrics. Prints on microfiber are highly resistant to washing and wear and tear, and they do not lose their quality for a long time.
Microfiber dries quickly after printing, which facilitates the production process and allows you to get finished textile products faster. They look very stylish and are often used for advertising. Such material is used in various textile products, including towels, sheets, sportswear, etc.
Features of printing on nylon
Various clothing items, decorations, and curtains are made from this fabric. Sports and stage costumes, evening dresses are sewn from nylon. It transmits light and is very resistant to damage.
Products made of nylon withstand long-term use. They are not afraid of washing, but it is preferable to wash in cold water. Nylon is not harmed by ultraviolet light, so products that are used outdoors or during outdoor activities are often sewn from it.
Nylon has a smooth surface, which allows the paint on it to be evenly distributed and well fixed on the fabric. However, it is important to use inks that are specially designed for printing on synthetic materials to ensure maximum color fastness and high image quality. The smooth surface allows you to apply detailed images and complex designs. Nylon quickly absorbs paint and dries quickly, which facilitates the process of printing and manufacturing textile products.
Print on elastane
Elastane is a synthetic fabric endowed with special properties – it stretches very well without being damaged, and easily returns to its original shape. Elastane clothes are very bright. It fits the body well, does not wrinkle and always looks attractive. The fabric is super thin and light. The material does not absorb moisture well, but it does not get very dirty and is easy to clean. It is strong and durable.
The type of printing and pattern applied to elastane are chosen in such a way as to obtain an image that loses quality and brightness even when the fabric is stretched. The paint will be evenly distributed over the smooth surface of the material, and it is important to control humidity during printing. If it is high, the dyes may smear. The applied drawings will be wear-resistant. They are not afraid of regular washing, retain their quality and brightness for a long time.
Pakotek company carries out printing and embroidery on various products and materials. Their composition also varies. We print flags on satin, gabardine, nylon and flag fabric. The sports uniform is sewn from high-quality sports polyester. Full-color and one-color images are applied to T-shirts, bags, caps, raglans and other items, taking into account the characteristics of the fabrics from which they are sewn and the needs of the customer.
