Silk fabric cover material characteristics of printed decorative fabrics

Silk cover material

The main ingredient of the silk cover material is silk. As early as over a thousand years ago, China used silk fabric as the main material of the book. The book with a relatively high modern value still uses silk fabric as a cover material to show its elegance and value.

With silk fabrics as cover materials, there are wide selection of colors, beautiful colors, elegant texture, ethnic characteristics, easy adhesion, easy hot stamping and other characteristics, the processed books give people a unique sense of art, welcomed by consumers at home and abroad. Often used as a work of art to decorate, present, and preserve. There are many types of silk fabrics, including silk, satin, spun, silk, silk, enamel, etc. Each of them is divided into many colors, and no less than a thousand species. There are the following main types of books and magazine covers:

1 satin. Satin is a superior material in silk. Satin warp and weft yarn interweaving position is distributed according to certain rules. More warp yarns or weft yarns are exposed on the fabric surface. The varieties are soft satin, brocade, satin, etc., among which are satin and satin. The satin texture is soft, smooth, elastic, and has a wide range of uses. The color of flower satin is generally more than three kinds, such as colorful satin, colorful satin, colorful satin, etc. Its texture is close, thick, elastic, satin body smooth, High artistic value is a superior silk material. Satin covers are all high-grade books, pictures, certificates, and packaging boxes. Satin crepe paper is very difficult and technically demanding. Not only is the adhesive used reasonable, but also smooth and firm, and it guarantees the verticality of the latitude and longitude lines and the softness behind the crepe, so that the crepe paper is satin-finished The pattern is not skewed.

2 spinning material. Spinning is a cover material in silk fabric that has a crisp texture, a solemn color, a smooth surface and a light bone, a simple and elegant appearance, and easy adhesion and processing. Spinning variety, such as vegetarian spinning, Huafang, Fuchunfang, and so on. Fuchunfang is generally used as a cover for spinning. Spinning materials should pay attention to the smooth surface of the spinning surface and the verticality of the latitude and longitude lines to ensure that the book shell production and appearance quality.

3 silk material. Silk is a silk fabric made of plain weave or plain weave. In the production of silk fabrics, weaving is followed by dyeing of raw silk; weaving is first called dyed silk; plain weave is not known as plain weaving; plain weave is called floral silk. Its types include tower poplin (such as poplin in cotton), flower silk, double palace silk, thin and very light silk and so on. Silk texture is soft, quaint and elegant. Hot stamping fine text patterns are clear and clean. They are mainly used for hardcover cover, line cover and book cover, butterfly fittings and sewing strips. When paper is creped, use a slightly thicker paper because of the thinness and fineness of the paper.

4 material.绢 is a thin, soft silk fabric dominated by jacquard.绢 is often used for high-end line book covers and book letters. Sometimes used for high-grade hardcover covers. Because the weaving method is fine, the texture is thin and soft, and the surface has a jacquard pattern, so we must master the use of adhesives and the selection of the paper thickness when we make paper. The processing must be fine, otherwise it will damage the appearance or cause waste. .

5 materials.绫 is the thinnest and softest fabric in silk and the finest weaving process. The surface of the material is smooth and delicate, like a thin paper. It is most used for vegetarians and also has a dark jacquard form. Most of the materials are used for the bookbinding cover, back cover, back cover, line packing angle materials, scroll loading and unloading, and material and other materials. Unpretentious installations give people an elegant, quaint, artistic feel. The same quality and high quality requirements are followed by the use of paper. It is not only used as a cover material, but also used as a material for advanced painting and calligraphy. Original and modern calligraphers directly wrote the paintings on silk or silk.

6 cashmere. Velvet, or silk velvet, also known as velvet, is a fabric in which partially or all of the surfaces of a silk fabric have a towering or flattened dense pile. Fluff generally stands about 3mm in height, with a bright and lustrous surface, beautiful and generous appearance, thick and soft texture, and excellent elasticity. Variety is velvet, velvet, gold velvet, Joe cashmere, cashmere and other kinds. Velvet is mostly used for high-grade hardcover books or luxury covers. It has a gorgeous appearance and has a strong three-dimensional effect after hot stamping.

Silk fabric used as a cover should pay attention to the following methods when processing:

A. Silk material should be shrink-proof before use. Because of the different textures and different weaving methods, the silk fabric materials have different forms of shrinkage, and the average shrinkage rate is generally 6% to 7%. Therefore, a shrink-proof treatment must be performed in advance, and the method is the same as that of the cotton fabric.

B. The silk material has good adhesive properties. Because the surface is tightly woven with silk fibers, there are many pores, and it is easy to penetrate water-soluble adhesives. After pressure, it has better adhesive properties and can be applied to a variety of adhesives. The main composition of silk is protein, not acid and alkali, acid fiber swelling case, the case of alkaline hydrolysis of the protein, silk fiber is destroyed, even if the weak acid and alkali is not suitable. Therefore, the use of acid-alkaline binders should be avoided during processing.

C, silk material hot stamping performance is good. The silk cover is easier to stamp than the cotton cover. Because of its delicate material surface, hot stamping of some fine line patterns (except satin, cashmere), the effect is better than other fabric materials, and resistant to hot temperature up to 165 °C, the general hot stamping temperature of 120 ~ 155 °C. If the cover of the velvet cover is hot, two hot presses are required to achieve the desired effect of hot stamping.
