China Factory Suppliers of Custom Stretchable Fabrics for Screen Printing with Plastisol Inks
Peculiarity
Physical properties:
The plastisol ink is paste, thixotropic, thick when placed, it will become thin after stirring, and the temperature will affect its viscosity, low viscosity in summer, high viscosity in winter.
Curing characteristics
It is almost not dry at room temperature, and when heated to a certain temperature (usually 150℃-180℃), cross-linking reaction will occur and cure, forming a flexible PVC film, and closely combined with the fiber.
Printing features
no plug, no frequent plate washing, can use 350 mesh screen printing, network cable up to 8 lines or more, fine pattern, printing dot can be wet sleeve wet continuous printing, improve work efficiency. The cured ink film has good elasticity, high adhesion fastness, and both dark and light fabrics can be printed.
Environmental protection characteristics
no solvent, minimal volatilization at room temperature, friendly to the environment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is plastisol ink?
Plastisol ink, also known as oil-based glue, is a resinous non-solvent ink composed of PVC resin, plasticizers, color materials, and other additives.
How does temperature affect the viscosity of plastisol ink?
Plastisol ink is thixotropic and temperature-sensitive. It exhibits low viscosity in summer (warmer temperatures) and high viscosity in winter (colder temperatures).
What are the required curing conditions for plastisol ink?
Plastisol ink does not dry at room temperature. It requires heating to a temperature of 150°C to 180°C and baking for 1 to 3 minutes to undergo a cross-linking reaction and cure completely.
Which fabric types are suitable for plastisol ink printing?
It is highly suitable for 100% cotton, cotton/polyester blends, polyester, denim, and other breathable fabrics that can withstand the 150°C curing process.
Are there any substrates that plastisol ink cannot be used on?
Yes, plastisol ink is not suitable for non-permeable materials such as plastic, metal, and glass, nor is it suitable for nylon fabrics that have undergone waterproof treatments.
Is plastisol ink environmentally friendly?
Yes, it contains no solvents, has minimal volatilization at room temperature, and produces no volatile organic compounds, making it safe for both environment and human health.
