Now, environmental protection has become a global trend. Traditional oily materials are gradually being eliminated, and water-based printing, that is, printing based on water, is becoming more and more popular.
And fluorescent pigments are super suitable for water-based printing, which can easily produce dazzling colors without polluting the environment!
What is fluorescent pigment?
Simply put, fluorescent pigment is a kind of color powder.They have a characteristic: they become particularly bright under sunlight or ultraviolet light, and the brightness is three times that of ordinary pigments.
What is the difference between fluorescent pigments and ordinary pigments?
1. The color is super bright and can be recognized at a glance.2. It emits light by itself (not reflecting light! It really shines by itself).
3. The color range is larger, and some colors that normal pigments cannot do can be made.
4. The visual impact is strong and unforgettable!
For environmental protection, many manufacturers now use water-based fluorescent pigments, that is, fluorescent pigments that can be dissolved in water, without worrying about toxic gases and environmental pollution.
In which water-based printing can fluorescent pigments be used?
Let's take a look at where fluorescent pigments can shine!1. Textile printing and dyeing:
When making T-shirts, sweatshirts, and sweatpants, fluorescent pigments are often used to print patterns. Wearing such clothes, whether in the sun during the day or under the lights at night, you are the most shining boy in the crowd!
Note:
Choose fluorescent pigments that are washable and sweat-resistant, otherwise they will fade after a few washes.
After printing, use a special adhesive to make the pattern more solid.
Don't dry it for too long when drying, too high a temperature will make the color darker.
For example:
Adidas and Nike's super cool night running series use fluorescent pigments!
2. Garment printing and dyeing:
Garment printing and dyeing means: after the clothes are finished, they are processed with fluorescent pigments, such as spraying colors on the sleeves, collars, and corners, and dyeing them with gradients, turning ordinary clothes into trendy brands in seconds!
Features:
Use pigments with good dispersibility to dye evenly;
Dye one piece at a time, the effect is particularly personalized.
3 .Transfer dyeing & immersion dyeing:
This method is suitable for large-scale fabric processing, such as dyeing hundreds of meters of fabric at the same time.
Soak the fluorescent pigment in water, soak the fabric in it, and dry it after dyeing, and you will get large pieces of glowing fabric!
Tips:
Control the pH value well so that the dyed color is stable;
It is best to add some softener after dyeing to make the fabric feel comfortable.
4 .Application of water-based paint (make walls and furniture glow)
Fluorescent pigments can be used not only on clothes, but also in water-based paint!
For example, brushing on walls, painting on amusement facilities, and luminous signs can make the colors more vivid.
The advantages are:
No air pollution (low VOC! Environmentally friendly!)
Easy to apply, dries quickly!
Reminder:
Exposing to the sun for a long time will make the color fade, so it is best to add some sunscreen to protect it.
5. Paper coating and advertising printing

Printing with water-based inks makes the colors more uniform, and it is also environmentally friendly and saves money.
Suitable methods include:
Screen printing;
Inkjet printing;
Offset printing;
6. Water-based PU leather coloring (shoes and bags can also fluoresce)
