Direct-to-Film (DTF) printing has revolutionized the textile and garment decoration industry, offering an effective way to print complex, colorful, and high-resolution designs onto a wide variety of fabrics. While there are several components to the DTF process, one of the most critical is DTF powder, an adhesive that bonds the ink to the garment during heat pressing. This article will delve into the vital role that DTF powder plays in the DTF process, how to properly use it, and the benefits it brings.
DTF powder, also known as hot melt adhesive powder, is a thermoplastic adhesive that activates upon exposure to heat. It’s applied to the printed design immediately after it’s printed on the DTF film. Once the design is transferred onto a garment using a heat press, the powder melts and solidifies as it cools, securely binding the ink to the fabric. The powder is crucial to ensuring that the DTF print is durable, flexible, and resistant to washing.
