1. Compatibility Selection: Different fabrics (such as cotton, silk, chemical fibers, blends, etc.) and printing processes have different requirements for thickeners. The appropriate type and viscosity of thickener should be selected based on the actual situation to ensure the printing effect.
2. Dosage Control: The amount of thickener used must be strictly controlled. Too much may lead to excessively high viscosity of the dye liquor, causing problems such as nozzle clogging and reduced pattern detail; too little will not provide effective thickening and anti-bleeding effects.
3. Addition Method: The thickener should be added slowly after the other components of the dye liquor are evenly mixed, while constantly stirring to ensure it is fully dispersed in the dye liquor. Avoiding excessively high local concentrations that could affect the thickening effect.
