Sublimation transfers are made from an ink that “sublimates” or goes directly from a solid to a gas state. When heat is applied, the ink converts to gas without going through the intermediate liquid stage.
When in close contact with polyester fibers and other polyester-coated objects, the sublimated gases penetrate and color the material fibers or polyester coating. The result is that the print actually becomes a part of the garment or coating. It doesn’t fade easily, wear or have any texture or weight. The printed image will be permanent, washable and bright.
Sublimation transfers will only work on white or very light fabrics that have a high polyester content. Polyester contents as low as 50% will work, but the resulting image colors will be subdued when compared to fabrics containing 100% polyester. Sublimation transfers will NOT work on 100% cotton.
