Heat transfer printers work by scanning the different levels of inkjet to transmit an image from one page to another surface, it works similarly to that of a iron press at home. However, sublimation printers use more functions and incorporates the use of gas to imprint images.

What Printers use wax-based ink that is heated by heat pins that melt the ink onto paper?

Thermal Printers.


How does one-dimensional heat transfer differ from two-dimensional heat transfer?

One dimensional heat transfer is when the temperature varition is in one direction only while two dimensional heat transfer is when temperature varies mainly in two directions (i.e x,y or r,z).


Is heat taken away or added in sublimation?

Sublimation is an endothermic physical change (heat is needed).

How do you make dash plaques?

We make dash plaques using dye sublimation. Sublimation is the process of turning a solid into a gas without becoming a liquid using heat. In the case of dash plaques, this starts with a digital printing process. The dash plaque design is printed on special transfer paper with special inks as a mirror image. The printed transfer is covered with specially coated aluminum and placed in a heat press. The heat press is heated to 400 degrees and when closed applies heat and pressure to the transfer and aluminum for about a minute. This causes the solids in the ink on the transfer paper to turn into a gas which is embed into the coating on the aluminum.

what is sublimation?

Dye Sublimation Transfer is a process where you use an image that has been created digitally either by scanning a photograph or downloading a picture taken with your digital camera or an image created in a piece of imaging software like Adobe Photoshop or CorelDRAW and then printing this image with an Epson printer using special inks called sublimation inks onto paper. Once the image is on the paper you place it under a heat transfer press on top of your substrate and heat the paper until the inks turn to a gas and transfer the image onto the item you are making.What type of printer do I need?Because of the type of ink that is used you are limited in the type of printer you can print with. Currently you can purchase sublimation ink for the following EPSON printers: Epson C82, C84, C86, 1280, 900, 980, 1400, R1800/800, 3000, 4000, 4800, 4880, or 7600. Condé offers sublimation solutions for wide-format printers such as the Roland Hi-Fi Jet Pro. Contact our Wide Format Division to learn more. What kind of inks do I need?The ink used in the Sublimation Transfer process is aspecial mixture of water and heat reactive dyes. For professional results everytime we recommend, sell, and support ArTainium UV + Sublimation Inks. What paper can I use?For Sublimation there are different papers developed for different substrates. Mousepads, tote-bags, DyeTrans™ Apparel, Soft L' ink Wearables, metal, and fabrics are best transfered using our Jetcol 5000 Hi Release Paper. When transfering items such as ceramics, plastics, jewelry, and porcelain, we recommend our DyeTrans™ Sublimation Paper. What type of Heat Transfer Press do I need?A heat press is the machine that presses a transfer onto an imprintable substrate. Using high temperatures and heavy pressures for a certain amount of time, the transfer is permanently embedded into the product. Heat presses are recommended for professional and satisfying results simply because standard laminating devices and home hand irons can not get even near the temperatures required for a reliable transfer. Standard transfers require anywhere from 375° to 425° F demand serious force in pressing often from 40-80 psi. These temperatures and pressures are simply not possible with other heated devices. Condé recommends George Knight Heat Presses because they are simply the best. George Knight Heat Presses have been the backbone of literally thousands upon thousands of business over the past 4 decades, providing a reliable workhorse of a product that stands up to the demands of imprinting business, manufacturing and personal use. What types of products can I make?Simply browse the list of sublimatable products from the menu to your right to see all the exciting items you can produce with a DyeTrans™ Sublimation Transfer System. Remember, Condé is here to help you grow your business by providing premium products, systems, supplies, and support for everything we sell. We are your partner and we are devoted to helping you grow your custom personalized product business.

The molar heats of sublimation and fusion of iodine are 62.3kjmol and 15.3kjmol respectively calculate the molar heat of vaporization of liquid iodide?

It is a known fact : Molar heat of sublimation = molar heat of fusion + molar heat of vaporization so, molar heat of vaporization = molar heat of sublimation - molar heat of fusion Mv = 62.3 kJ/mol - 15.3 kJ/mol Mv = 47 kJ/mol.
