Caiying Series Transfer Paper is a high-performance heat transfer medium specifically designed for digital printing applications. This specialized paper enables the transfer of digitally printed designs onto various substrates through a heat press process. With its advanced coating technology, Caiying transfer paper achieves 94-98% ink absorption rate while maintaining dimensional stability within ±0.3% during the transfer process.
The paper's unique formulation includes a 40-50 g/m² base weight with a precisely calibrated 12-18 micron coating thickness, optimized for both pigment and dye-based ink systems. This ensures minimal ink bleeding while achieving color gamut coverage exceeding 90% of Adobe RGB in final transfers.
Thermal Performance: Designed to withstand 180-220°C transfer temperatures for 15-30 seconds without curling or degradation
Moisture Resistance: Maintains ≤2% moisture absorption in standard 50% RH environments, preventing premature activation
Transfer Efficiency: Achieves ≥95% image transfer rate with proper application parameters
Substrate Compatibility: Suitable for cotton (100%), polyester (50/50 blends), and specialty fabrics with ≥85% transfer adhesion in peel tests
Optical Brightness: Base paper maintains 92-96 ISO brightness for accurate color representation
The versatility of Caiying Series Transfer Paper makes it suitable for numerous professional applications:
Ideal for custom apparel production, the paper delivers 50+ wash cycles durability on cotton fabrics when using compatible inks. Its low-residue formulation leaves <0.5 g="">transfer film, maintaining fabric hand feel.
Used for imprinting designs on mugs, plates, and other ceramic items through sublimation transfers. The paper's 4.3-4.7 pH balanced coating prevents image ghosting during the 200°C/400°F sublimation process.
Employed in membrane switch production and instrument panel labeling, where the paper's 0.05-0.07 mm thickness consistency ensures precise registration during transfer.
Facilitates vibrant banner and flag printing with ≥8 on the Gray Scale for ink density and 150-200% stretch compatibility for tensioned fabric installations.
To maintain optimal performance of Caiying Series Transfer Paper, follow these storage and handling protocols:
Environmental Conditions: Store at 18-25°C (64-77°F) with 40-60% relative humidity. Avoid temperature fluctuations exceeding ±5°C/hour
Light Exposure: Protect from direct sunlight, as UV exposure can degrade the coating's adhesive properties within 200 lux-hours
Packaging Integrity: Keep in original moisture-proof packaging until use. Once opened, use within 72 hours in standard office environments
Handling Precautions: Wear lint-free gloves when handling to prevent oil transfer. Stack sheets with ≤50 sheet increments to prevent edge compression
Printer Compatibility: For best results, use with printers maintaining 1,440-2,880 dpi resolution and 6-12 picoliter droplet size
For long-term storage (>6 months), seal unused paper in vapor-proof bags with desiccant and maintain at 10-15°C. Under these conditions, the paper maintains its specified performance characteristics for up to 24 months from manufacture date.
When using Caiying Series Transfer Paper in production environments:
Pre-condition paper at room temperature for 2-4 hours before printing if stored in cold environments
Maintain 0.5-1.5 mm gap between print head and paper surface to prevent coating damage
Use ICC profiles specifically calibrated for the paper's 1.8-2.2 optical density range
After printing, allow 3-5 minute drying time before heat application for optimal results
For multi-layer transfers, maintain 30-45 second cooling period between applications
