Research Summary
Heat transfer film, often referred to as heat transfer vinyl (HTV), is a type of material used in garment decoration and textile customization. It consists of a thin vinyl sheet with an adhesive backing that, when heated, adheres to fabrics like cotton, polyester, or blends. Heat transfer films come in various colors and finishes, including matte, glossy, or textured options. The application process involves cutting the desired design or pattern from the film using a computer-controlled cutting machine, weeding out the excess material, and then heat pressing the film onto the fabric using a heat press machine. The heat activates the adhesive, securely bonding the film to the fabric. This method is commonly used for creating custom designs on T-shirts, hats, bags, and other apparel items, providing a durable and visually appealing way to personalize textiles without the need for extensive screen printing or embroidery processes.
