Foaming agent for expanding puff prints with textile silicones
SILME-Foam 20 from Nanotech Chemical Brothers is a foaming agent that you add to textile silicones. While curing at elevated temperature, the silicone expands, giving your print a three-dimensional, puffy look. How much the print expands depends on the curing temperature and on the amount of foaming agent you add.
Key benefits
- Three-dimensional effect: the print expands into a striking relief.
- Adjustable: you control the effect with the dosage and curing temperature.
- Combinable: gloss, thickness and colour are set by the textile silicone you choose.
Typical applications
- ✓ Puff prints on textiles
- ✓ Logos and designs with relief
Processing
- Choose the textile silicone that gives the gloss, thickness and colour you want.
- Mix SILME-Foam 20 into the textile silicone.
- Apply the mixture to the fabric.
- Cure at elevated temperature. The print expands as it cures.
- Fine-tune dosage and temperature with a test print.
Points to note
- ✓ The final result depends strongly on the textile silicone used, the dosage and the curing temperature. Always test first.
- ✓ This product is supplied on quotation.
