The Differences Between Seven Powders
Recognize the differences between different powders to avoid incorrect use.
White powder is the most commonly used DTF powder. Fine powder typically has a particle diameter of 0-70 microns, medium powder ranges from 70-170 microns. Medium powders are more prone to vibration than fine powders, making them suited for cotton, polyester, and low-elasticity fabrics. Fine powders, are preferable for textiles where image fidelity and sharpness are critical.
Black DTF powder is typically used for black or dark-colored fabrics and isn’t as widely utilized as white powder. The black powder contains activated carbon and TPU rubber powder, which help prevent sublimation during use. Interestingly, contrary to common assumptions, black powder is not uncommon in practical application scenarios. Polyester and fabrics like cloth make use of it.
Anti-static DTF powder minimizes electrostatic buildup, proving particularly beneficial in areas with consistently low temperatures. Its anti-static properties ensure precise powder adhesion to the target area, reducing unwanted stray powder. However, this powder isn’t a panacea; optimal DTF printing results are still best achieved under suitable temperature and humidity conditions.
The high-elastic DTF powder is composed of TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane). The high-elastic property is to ensure the flexibility and durability of the image transfer after adhesion, so that it will not crack due to stretching, and it is suitable for those fabrics that are easy to stretch, and the non-cracking property can also indicate that the Powder has a strong adhesive strength itself.
Low-temperature DTF powder is a type of powder used for transferring images onto fabrics at lower temperatures. Conventional PU powder has a melting point between 100 and 110 degrees, while low-temp powder has a melting point between 85 and 90 degrees. The lower temperature can reduce the risk of fabric damage during the transfer process, making it suitable for special fabrics.
Ultra-Soft DTF powder imparts a luxuriously soft and smooth hand feel to fabrics after image transfer. Its particle size is comparable to that of standard white powder(typically 80-170 microns), yet the tactile difference is striking. The smoother and flatter the fabric, the more pronounced the difference becomes, allowing for superior integration of the image with the fabric’s texture.
How to Solve The Problem of DTF Powder Sticky Powder
The problem of DTF powder sticking is not necessarily due to the quality of the powder itself, but may also be caused by an error in the transfer operation.
- Excessive ink jetting of patterns: Ink not fully absorbed or dried, resulting in excessive adhesion of hot melt powder;
- Improper Hot Melt Adhesive Selection: The hot melt powder's particle size or type is incompatible with the ink or film material used.
- Hot Melt Powder Compatibility Issues: The fluidity or melting temperature of the powder does not meet the process requirements.
- Insufficient Baking Temperature or Time: Hot melt powder not fully melted and fixed on the pattern surface
- DTF Film Material Surface Problems: Uneven adhesion of hot melt powder due to roughness of Film surface or coating quality problems.
- High Ambient Humidity: Excessive humidity can cause the ink to dry slower, while the hotmelt powder may become damp and reduce its performance.
- Adjusting Printing Parameters: Adjust the ink output according to the complexity of the pattern and make sure the ink surface is dry before dusting.
- Choosing The Right Hot Melt Powder: Select powder appropriate for the ink and film, prioritizing good flowability and consistent melting point.
- Optimization of The Baking: Temperature depends on the type of hotmelt powder, check the oven to make sure the temperature is evenly distributed.
- Improve Of Environ Conditions: Control humidity at 40%-60% to prevent dust or impurities from interfering with the adhesion of the powder.
- Replace or Adjust The Film: Ensure that the DTF film is uniformly coated and suitable for ink and hotmelt processes, try different types of films.
- Checking The Dusting Process: Improve uniformity of distribution by using an automatic powder spreader and properly clean up excess powder
Methods for Storing DTF Heat Transfer Powder
A 2.2 lb bag of powder can be used many times, so you need to know how to store it!
It is recommended that DTF hot melt powders be stored at room temperature(15 to 30 degrees). Excessively high or low temperatures may affect the melting point and fluidity of the powder, resulting in poor adhesion or other performance problems.
Relative humidity should be maintained between 40% and 60%. Excessive humidity may cause the hotmelt powder to become caked with moisture, affecting its homogeneity and application. Avoid placing near damp walls or floors, This is important.
Prolonged exposure to sunlight may cause changes in the composition of the hot melt powder and affect its adhesive properties. It should be stored in a cool place away from light, with special care taken to avoid indirect heat effects in hot areas.
After each use, make sure the packaging container is well sealed to prevent the powder from absorbing moisture and being contaminated, and avoid storing the hot melt powder in an environment with volatile chemicals to prevent chemical reactions.
DTF Powder usually has shelf life to avoid printing effect problem due to expiration. Regularly check whether the powder is contaminated by dust, oil and other impurities, so that the impurities will not affect the melting and print quality of the powder.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the melting point of DTF hot melt powder?
The melting point of hot melt powder will be different according to the material Low temperature powder 85-90 degrees melting point Common specification PU powder melting point in the range of 100-110 degrees.
What is the recommended baking temperature for DTF hot melt powder?
Baking temperature should be based on different heating and baking equipment to do micro-adjustment of the difference in temperature measurement, the conventional setting than the melting point of 0-20 degrees above the range can be.
Will the use of DTF hot melt powder take into account the use of DTF jitterbugs?
Yes, most of the DTF Film will work in a DTF shaker when sprinkling DTF hotmelt powder, which requires you to set the baking temperature, which depends on the melting point of the hotmelt powder and is fine-tuned with reference to the baking effect.
Is there a correlation between the use of DTF hot melt powder and other DTF consumables?
Yes, it is not DTF Powder is better to clarify the advantages of image transfer, in fact, you need to combine with other DTF printing consumables to determine the quality of the finished transfer, the general transfer out of the results of the problem, they all have an impact on each other, to clarify which link is the root of the problem!
