Hot stamping foil

The Hot Stamping Foils are in rich and colorful designs and patterns
with good brightness and adhesive power. And the superposition,
interleaving and compounding of different patterns of some hot
stamping foils can show fancy and tridimensional effect for
sightseeing. Our products are widely used in different kinds of
materials for hot stamping, such as all kinds of paper, different
kinds of plastic, artificial and genuine leather, wood, and textile,
etc. In addition, Special dimensions can be produced for any length
and width according to special orders.

The Metallic Yarn Manufacturing Process

Metallic yarns start as rolls of films or laminations 30" or wider. These wide rolls are
slit into narrow rolls 2" to 5" wide. These narrow rolls are gang slit across their entire
width to micro widths from 1/128" (.0078") and wider and then taken up on plastic
spools for shipment to textile mills.
There is a rainbow of colors available from red, blue, green, etc. to gold and silver.
Brilliant, reflective colors which add decorative patterns to fabrics.
Supported yarns are made by wrapping single slit yarns with two ends of nylon. One
end of nylon is wrapped clockwise and the other end is wrapped counterclockwise
around the metallic yarn. Each nylon yarn has from 5 to 7 wraps to the inch. The most
commonly used nylon is either 15 denier or 20 denier, but heavier deniers are used for
special purposes. Supported yarns are put up on cones.

Metallic Yarn Uses

Metallic yarns are woven, braided, and knit into many fashionable fabrics and
trims. For additional variety, metallic are twisted with other fibers such as wool,
nylon, cotton and synthetic blends to produce yarns which add novelty effects to
the end cloth or trim. They make all textiles more attractive by adding sparkle.

At one time or another, metallic yarns have been used in just about every form of
textiles. Some end uses have been in automotive fabrics, television front fabrics,
bath towels and face cloths, clerical vestments, bathing suits, hosiery, upholstery,
hat bands, etc. Also in theatrical clothing, theater back drops, doll clothing, banners
and uniforms.

Care of Fabrics With Metallic Yarns

Professional dry cleaning with perchlorethylene is preferred to laundering. Hand
laundering with Woolite and cold water is the only suggested laundering method.
Never with bleach.
Fabrics containing metallic yarns should be treated like all synthetic fabrics.
Ironing should be at the lowest setting on the iron. If there is no thermostat on the
iron, do not use that iron. Do not use steam when ironing metallic yarns.

Adhesive tape is one of many varieties of backing materials coated with

an adhesive. Several types of adhesives can be used.

Brightness Enhancement Film (BEF) is widely used in the

design and manufacture of LCD screens and large-screen TVs. It
is generally used to provide maximum brightness towards the onaxis viewer.

Flexible Printed Circuit

Flex circuits are often used as connectors in various applications where flexibility, space
savings, or production constraints limit the serviceability of rigid circuit boards or hand
wiring. In addition to cameras, a common application of flex circuits is in computer
keyboard manufacturing; most keyboards made today use flex circuits for the switch
matrix..
