The silk screen printing process has many excellent characteristics for other processes. First, it has good fluidity, strong viscosity and clear effect, stable high and low temperature printing resistance, good weather resistance and aging resistance, etc. The pattern printed by the product silk screen has more three-dimensional and hand feel, and the silk screen image also has excellent peel strength, wear resistance and brightness; It is also waterproof, antiskid, breathable, high and low temperature resistant and has outstanding leveling performance.

The effect of silk screen printing has a lot to do with the quality of the pattern, so it will appear in some processes such as silicone keys and silicone gift cups. The ink applied by the product is also crucial to the silk screen process. The ink with good quality can improve the quality of the pattern, while some products will fade after a long time of use, mainly due to the following reasons:

1. The quality of silk screen printing ink is relatively poor, which affects the surface of silicone products, resulting in poor silk screen effect;
2. The low baking temperature or short baking time after the silk screen printing of silicone products lead to poor wear resistance of the silicone product patterns printed from the silk screen, and the patterns become blurred after several times of use;
3. The surface of silica gel products is too dirty, and the silk screen is not cleaned before, which hinders the adsorption between the silk screen ink and silicone rubber, causing characters to fall off with a little force.
