In the textile digital printing industry, some textiles will go off-line when they meet the nozzle of the printing machine, causing damage.
The following is a detailed explanation of which materials are suitable for digital printing and which are not:
1. Cotton
Cotton is a natural fiber that is widely used in clothing especially in the fashion industry for its high moisture resistance, comfort and durability. With a digital textile printing machine, you can print on cotton. To achieve the highest possible quality, most digital printers use reactive inks, as this type of ink provides the highest washfastness for printing on cotton.
2. Viscose
Another natural fiber widely used in the fashion industry is viscose. It is possible to print on viscose with a digital printing machine. Best results are achieved when printing on viscose with reactive inks, as with cotton.
3. Silk
Another natural fiber suitable for digital textile printing is silk. Silk can be printed with reactive inks (better color fastness) or acid inks (wider color gamut).
For digital printing, there are still certain limitations, and the processing methods for different fabrics are also different. The above is the content shared with you, I hope it will be helpful to you.
