Transfer printing silicone is the raw materials of making pads. The transfer printing technology is related to three factors: the printing materials, pad, ink, which determines the quality of the final effects. So what are the characteristics of transfer printing silicone?

The pads can be made into many different shapes, some basic shapes include round, rectangle and square. The operating method is that the pad as a carrier transfers the design obtained from the etching plate to the surface of the target objects, which has been widely applied in many fields.

 

Characteristics of transfer printing silicone rubber:

1. The operation of making silicone pad is very simple.

2. It has very fine quality, no impurities, good resilience and can transfer the patterns to the target objects properly and clearly.

 

Questions asked frequently about pad printing silicone rubber :

1. Why should we add some silicone oil some times?

The hardness of the silicone pad often need to be adjusted depend on the size and intricate degree of the target objects. And the silicone oil plays a role in changing the hardness of silicone pad by diluting the viscosity of the silicone fluid. However, please note that you can just add a little silicone oil, because it can impair the pad’s quality.

 

2. Why doesn’t the pad absorb ink?

The pad is too hard to absorb the ink from the steel plate thoroughly. So you need to change another product model that has a more suitable hardness.
