Printing Process
Design and Plate making
First design the pattern and transfer it to the screen plate. Screen printing plates need to be coated with a photographic emulsion, and through exposure to harden the emulsion to form a pattern. The part of the emulsion that is not hardened will allow the ink to pass through, thus forming a pattern on the fabric.
Ink preparation
Discharge ink needs to be mixed with activator and pigment. When the mixed ink is ready, it is ready for printing.
Printing
Placing the screen plate on the fabric, the ink is evenly scraped across the screen, and the ink is transferred to the fabric through the open part of the screen.
Curing
After printing is complete, the fabric needs to be heated to activate the bleach in the ink and complete the discharge process. After curing, the color of the pattern on the fabric is revealed, and the remaining ink and chemicals are finally removed by washing.
Suitable Fabric & Safety
Cotton Fabrics
Discharge inks are best used on cotton fabrics, especially dark cotton fabrics.
Other Fabrics
While cotton works best, it can also be used on other natural fiber fabrics, though the results may vary. Synthetic fibers (such as polyester, nylon) are usually not suitable for discharge processes because their dyes cannot be removed.
Environmental Factors
Environmentally friendly: Discharge inks usually use water-based formulations that have less impact on the environment.
