Product Development Background

In the international market, wool and nylon digital printing inks are vacancies in potential market demand. Acid inks occupy an irreplaceable position in the market because they can be applied to nylon fiber fabrics. It is reported that in the global digital printing market, acid ink will grow significantly.


The First Choice for Nylon and Wool Fabrics


The dyeing performance of nylon is similar to that of wool. It has excellent strength, wear resistance, soft feel, light texture and other good wearing properties. It occupies an important position among synthetic fibers. It is comfortable and light to wear and can be used in clothing fabrics such as mountaineering clothing, sportswear, and swimsuits. For the dyeing of nylon fabrics, acid dyes combine with the terminal amine groups of nylon through strong ionic bonds or electrostatic attraction to obtain bright colors with excellent color fastness, making them the first choice for dyeing nylon fabrics.


Will hongsam acid ink corrode the print head?


Many people who have not been exposed to digital printing for a long time think that acidic digital printing ink is acidic, corrosive and can damage the printheads. This is actually a misunderstanding. Acid ink is made from acid dyes, acid dyes are water-soluble dyes with acidic groups in their structure. They are suitable for dyeing in acidic media. They are only acidic, not the pH value of the ink itself is acidic.

The pH value of Hongsam acid digital printing ink can be adjusted to a slightly alkaline state that is most suitable for the print head. At the same time, because Hongsam acid ink has no hydrolysis problem, the pH value of the ink can remain stable for a long time and is safe for the printheads.
