What is Silicone Ink?
Silicone ink is an environmentally friendly ink designed for printing on fabrics and textiles, including T-shirts, underwear, sportswear, socks, and more. It is widely used in the textile printing industry for its flexibility, durability, and soft hand feel.
XG Silicone Ink XG ink comes in two series:
Air-dry silicone ink and heat-cured silicone ink.
- Air-dry silicone ink, mixed with 10% catalyst, dries at low temperatures or room temperature and is used for dip coating shoelaces.
- Heat-cured silicone ink series requires heating to 120 degrees for drying, with a catalyst mix ratio of 2-3%. Higher percentages of catalyst can accelerate drying.
This series is used for screen printing.
