Quick Ink drying
No ink leakage even at 6 pass printing without heater on a roll to roll inkjet printer & 90 Nozzle setting on L1800 inkjet printers. Even while printing white on CMYK Black color.
Ultranex DTF Inkjet Film’s inkjet ink receptive coating layer have been developed for optimum ink absorption, as soon as the inkjet ink drop lands on it, Ink will dry rapidly.
Good Adhesion of printed label to the film
Printed ink form a temporary strong adhesion to the film after sufficient heating. When fine text are printed and cured it is necessary that hold on is good with the film or there are chances that small letters may falloff or Peel off.
High temperature stability
While drying labels after thermo powder application, Film will remain dimensionally stable or will still not lose it’s lay flat property. PET film used has high temperature stability upto 180°C for 10 Minutes.
Colour Vibrancy of the image will be at its optimum
Ultranex DTF Printing film will open up the Inkjet inks optimum levels of colour brightness. Its not just ink, Yes film coating will also affect the colour vibrancy according to Coating thickness, Its PH value & Additives used.
Smooth Warm & Cold Peel
* Hot peel is possible but depends on other factors like Ink, Adhesive Powder type and Transfer conditions.
Satin Matte finish to the surface of transferred Image
Soft Feel to Transfers
Ultranex DTF Inkjet Films are made with 2 layer technology 1st is the release layer and 2nd is the inkjet in receptive layer. Ink receptive layer after printing and drying becomes part of Ink / label and transfers with the label on the garment.
In Ultranex DTF Film Ink receptive layer is of low hardness to give a soft and smooth feel to transfers.
So even if the inks are soft if the ink receptive layer is not good it will give a thick and hard finish to the transfers.
Excellent wash Fastness
Ultranex DTF Heat Release Film adds to the wash fastness of the DTF image on the garment, As the inkjet ink receptive layer will act as scratch resistance layer.
Again ink is always been made responsible to wash fastness & it is but If inkjet ink receptive layer is not friendly with the ink composition or of low quality it will affect wash stability of DTF label on the garment.
Trouble free powder application
Coating and back side of Ultranex DTF film both have antistatic properties, Mainly powder sticking issue with reference to film is due to static generation in the film.

- It is recommended to wear gloves to avoid damage on the film surface.
- Avoid extra tapping as Ultranex DTF film is inherent antistatic which helps easy Hot Melt powder removal from non printed areas.
- In drying process we recommend 160°C to 180°C for 3 to 4 Minutes to the printed surface of the film. For best results medium wave IR lamp heater in the shaker is recommended as they are non color sensitive. Note: Oven temp is not the set temperature but the actual temp received on the film.
- Normally; well dried labels will not show sweating or oil on the label surface in storage condition, but it is recommended that ready labels to be kept in moisture proof poly bags to avoid moisture issue.
Transfers can be applied from 160°C to 180°C for 30 to 15 seconds with 2 to 4 bars pressure.
With certain type of design hot peel is not applicable, but we recommend warm to cold peel to get best results.
Note: In case oily stains are found on surface of transferred labels, wipe it with a damp cloth & balance labels should be dried again for 1 to 3 minutes @ 160°C before transfer so any access moisture gets removed.
