Premium Elastic SiliconeInk Ink for High-Stretch Textiles

Key Features & Performance

Why choose our Elastic Silicone over competitors?

Advanced Stretch & Memory

Supports over 500% elongation while being highly resistant to whitening or cracking. It quickly returns to its original shape, maintaining the structure of high-spandex fabrics.

Premium Soft-Hand Feel

Delivers a “skin-like” soft touch with a non-sticky finish after curing. Available in versatile Matte, Glossy, and Suede effects to suit high-end design requirements.

Exceptional Durability

Built to withstand rigorous conditions. Performs exceptionally well in 60°C wash tests (50+ cycles) and rub tests, while showing strong resistance to swimming pool chlorine and seawater.

Eco-Compliant & Process Stability

100% Solid content, low VOCs, and heavy-metal-free, making it suitable for baby wear. Its excellent thixotropy supports sharp edges for 3D printing while significantly reducing the risk of screen-blocking during long runs.

How to Use: Operation Process

To ensure optimal adhesion and performance, follow this professional workflow

1.Preparation

Mix the Silicone Base with the Catalyst (Ratio 10:1 or 100:2). Add pigment (max 10-15%) for color.

2.Underbase (Crucial)

For fabrics like Nylon or Polyester, print a clear Silicone Linker/Primer first to ensure adhesion and prevent dye migration. Flash cure surface dry.

3.Printing

Mesh: 100-120 mesh (40-48T) for High Density; 150-200 mesh (59-80T) for fine lines. ◦
Squeegee: 65-75 Durometer, flat or beveled angle.

4.Flash Curing & Final Cure

Flash at 100°C – 120°C for 10 seconds between layers until surface is dry to touch.
Bake the finished garment in a tunnel dryer at 140°C – 160°C for 90-120 seconds.
◦ Note: If heat sensitivity is an issue, extend time and lower temperature.

FAQ – Troubleshooting

Q1: Can this silicone be used on waterproof nylon?

A: Yes, but you must use our specific Nylon Bonding Agent (Linker) as the first layer to ensure it sticks to the waterproof coating.

Q2: How do I achieve a matte finish?

A: We provide a specialized Matte Topcoat Silicone. Print this as the final layer to achieve a non-reflective, premium matte look.

Q3: Is machine mixing required?

A: For best results, mechanical mixing is recommended to ensure the catalyst is evenly distributed, but hand mixing is possible for small batches.

Q4: What is the MOQ for custom colors?

A: We offer clear base and pigments separately so you can mix any Pantone color. For pre-mixed Pantone colors, MOQ is 200KG.

Q5: How can I prevent dye migration (bleeding) when printing on dark polyester or sublimated fabrics?

A: To ensure color purity on high-risk substrates, we recommend applying our Specialized Anti-Migration Gray Blocker as your first layer. This formula acts as a high-density thermal barrier that traps polyester disperse dyes, preventing them from sublimating into your top-layer colors during the heat-curing process. This is the gold standard for maintaining crisp whites and vibrant neons on dark teamwear and jerseys.
