♦ Production Process of Printed Reflective Fabric:


The principle of reflective printing is to print spherical lens glass beads (composed of silica, barium oxide, zinc oxide, etc.) on the fabric surface. The glass beads refract, reflect and refract the light on the fabric, so that the incident light returns to the direction of the light source. The color paste composition of reflective printing includes reflector, cross-linking agent and colorant (proper amount).

A mixture should have strong film-forming property and high transparency, in order to improve the fastness of the product, crosslinking agent can be added if necessary. The reflection intensity of reflective patterns printed with different color pastes is different.

The darker the color of general colorants is, the stronger the ability of absorbing light is, and the lower the corresponding reflective intensity is. The process of reflective printing is similar to pigment printing. After printing, it is dried at 100-105 ℃ and then baked at 150 ℃ for 3 min
