Orgasol^® additives in transfer paper coatings improves print quality and image durability

• Improved print quality – the spherical, micro-porous structure of Orgasol^® products captures ink in its crevices. When the image is thermally transferred, the Orgasol^® melts and releases the ink resulting in improved print definition, depth of colour, and overall print quality

• Easy transferability – Orgasol^® additives possess hydrophilic properties which makes them compatible with water based ink formulations. The relatively low melting points of the Orgasol^® products designed for transfer paper applications makes image transferring easy because only a small amount of heat is required to melt the Orgasol^® additive, which releases the ink captured in its crevices onto the substrate

• Enhanced image durability – Orgasol^® powders have good adhesion properties to the fabric because of the relatively high melt flow index of the Orgasol^® additives. The high melt flow rate ensures optimum penetration of the Orgasol^® powder into the textile fibers.  This contributes to enhanced image durability, particularly as related to laundering resistance.
