Sublimation ink is unique in its ability to convert from a solid to a gas without going through a liquid form. (Just like dry ice.) The conversion is initiated by heat and controlled with pressure and time. Hard items such as ceramic, fiber board, metals, etc. requires a special coating to accept the sublimation inks.
You must purchase the mugs, tiles, metals, etc. with the coating already on them. When you apply to 100% polyester, you do not need any coating, it is applied directly to the 100% polyester fabric.
Sublimation inks contain special sublimation dyes and are used to print directly or indirectly on fabrics that consist of a high percentage of polyester fibers. In a heating step the dyes sublimate into the fibers and create an image with strong color and good durability.
