DTFINK
Our DTF White Ink (Model: DW-500W, DW-1000W) is formulated specifically for direct-to-film printing, with a viscosity range of 3.5–4.2 mPa·s and surface tension of 31–33 mN/m. The formulation uses imported titanium dioxide particles with an average size of 0.22 μm, ensuring high opacity without sedimentation.
In our internal 2024 stability tests (Report No. INK-QC-2406-117, available upon request), the ink was stored for 6 months at 25 ℃ without precipitation exceeding 3% volume, meeting the ISO 2836 rub-resistance standard. When applied on 100% cotton fabric, prints showed color fastness to washing at Grade 4–5 (ISO 105-C06) after 50 laundering cycles at 60 ℃.
This ink is widely adopted by printing workshops in Europe and Southeast Asia. For instance, a Vietnamese uniform factory in Ho Chi Minh City reported reducing their average nozzle cleaning frequency by 38% compared to their previous supplier’s ink, after switching to our DW-1000W batch in May 2024.
High Opacity for Maximum Coverage
In a comparative test (Lab Report No. LAB-2024-WO-032), our ink achieved a ΔE < 1.5 color difference against Pantone standard white, while a common competitor’s ink exceeded ΔE 4.2. This means designs appear brighter and more consistent on dark textiles, such as 220 gsm black polyester T-shirts.
Advanced Anti-Clogging Formula
Using a resin-dispersed nano pigment system, the ink maintains stable flow through Epson i3200 printheads at a jetting frequency of 15 kHz. A long-run reliability test (100 hours continuous printing, XP600 head, ambient 28 ℃) recorded nozzle blockage of less than 2%, whereas typical inks show 8–10% in the same condition.
Exceptional Wash Durability
On 65/35 polyester-cotton blends, transfer prints retained over 92% optical density after 50 wash cycles at 40 ℃, verified by SGS Test Report (No. SGS-TXT-2024-5541). No visible cracking or peeling was observed under a 10× magnifier.
Versatility Across Fabrics
Applied on leather substrates (1.2 mm cowhide), adhesion reached Grade 5 under ISO 2409 cross-cut test, proving suitability for non-textile applications such as bags, caps, and shoes.
eco-friendly & Low Odor
VOC content measured < 0.2 g/L, complying with EU REACH and RoHS standards. A German client in Munich reported that workers preferred this ink because it reduced workplace odor compared to solvent-heavy alternatives.
In real-world production, these advantages translate into less downtime, sharper prints, and reduced maintenance costs. That is why more than 60% of our repeat customers in 2024 upgraded from generic inks to our DW series.
Our DW-500W and DW-1000W batches are manufactured with >72% TiO₂ pigment loading, giving a measured opacity of 94% on 200 gsm black cotton (ISO 2814 reflectance test).
Case Example (Report ID: LAB-2024-WHI-091): A client in Turkey compared our white ink with a Korean supplier’s ink. On a black polyester T-shirt, our underbase required only 1 pass at 1440×720 dpi to reach full coverage, while the competitor’s product required 2 passes, reducing production efficiency by 25%.
The ink uses a nano-dispersion system with particle size control at D90 ≤ 0.35 μm, specifically tested for Epson XP600 and i3200 heads. In long-term jetting at 15 kHz frequency, clogging rate remained below 1.8% after 100 hours continuous printing.
Case Example (Customer Report, Thailand, May 2024): A print shop running 3× XP600 printers reduced their average nozzle cleaning from 4 times/day to 2.5 times/day after switching to our DW series, saving about USD 320/month in downtime and ink waste.
Wash resistance is validated according to ISO 105-C06. On 65/35 poly-cotton blends, the prints retained ≥92% optical density after 50 wash cycles at 40 ℃, with no visible cracks under a 10× microscope.
Case Example (SGS Test No. SGS-2024-INK-722): A German workwear supplier ordered 500L in July 2024. Their uniforms maintained Grade 4–5 wash fastness after 60 cycles, significantly exceeding their previous supplier’s Grade 3 results.
