Thermal transfer film is a protective decorative film

1-Thermal transfer film is a protective decorative film
Thermal transfer film is a protective decorative film that can not only separate the protective layer and the pattern layer from the polyester substrate, but also cleverly use the characteristics of temperature and pressure to melt the glue intact, so that the entire decorative layer is bonded to the substrate and perfectly printed on the product surface.

2-Thermal transfer film consists of 4 layers
Thermal transfer is generally composed of 4 layers. The following is a detailed introduction:

Base film: As the name suggests, it is a carrier for release, ink, and glue coating. Generally, a film with heat resistance, pressure resistance, and small tensile deformation is selected.

Release layer: It is a coating of release agent, which remains solid at room temperature and can melt at a specific temperature. The bonding force with the base layer becomes smaller and it quickly detaches from the base layer.

It is required to have good wear resistance, protect color ink, reduce the intensity of ultraviolet radiation, reduce the invasion of adverse factors in the air on ink, prolong the service life of ink, and buffer the adhesion of substrate film and printing layer.

Printing layer: also known as "ink layer", this layer is the basis of the quality and beauty of thermal transfer film. With the advancement of printing technology, the printing layer can reproduce various patterns and effects. It is generally made by gravure printing. The printing layer after gravure printing is not only delicate, but also very beautiful.

Glue layer: Its basic performance is to have a high adhesion with the surface of the substrate, to ensure that the printing layer is firmly bonded to the surface of the substrate. One point that needs special attention is that the selected glue must be determined according to the properties of the substrate, otherwise the adhesion effect will deteriorate.

3-Thermal transfer film highlights two highlights
For those products that have been printed with thermal transfer film, there is no need to worry about its quality. Since the flower film is made of multiple layers of materials (release layer, ink layer, glue layer, etc.), these can maintain the adhesion of the product, so this type of product does not have properties such as wear resistance, heat resistance, and light resistance. This is a major highlight.

Another major highlight of thermal transfer film is the pattern and pattern. It can be tailored and customized according to personal needs. It is rich in colors, making the decorative products more personalized and reflecting their own style, isolating the market from the same style.
