Fixamin CP T1 for Double Dot technology

The Double Dot technology is a combination of paste dot and scatter coating.
This kind of coating has been developed for relatively “open” substrates whereas the threat
of backstroke of the hotmelt powder dot shall be eliminated. In this case a combined paste-
scatter dot is been applied, while the paste is printed onto the substrate and may not be
reactivated after drying. The upper dot, usually a Copolyamide powder, is used for the
bonding of the interlining with the shell fabric.

Requirements of Double Dot Paste systems

• Good processing properties (no sticking, long open time)

• High production speed
• Easy to prepare
• Environmental friendly
• Good adhesion to upper dot
• Resistance to wash and dry cleaning
• No strike back
• No high price level

FIXAMIN CP T1

• Is an aqueous paste based on polyurethane

• Generates a very good dot shape due to it‘s reological behaviour
• Provides a good adhesion to polyamide and polyester powder
• Has an excellent dry cleaning and wash resistance up to 60°C
• Can be used with CC and CP printing screens
• Allows line speed up to 80 m/min and above
• Has a very long open time to prevent a blocking of the surface of the screen

Application

FIXAMIN CP T1 can be applied with rotary printing screens by double dot coating
technology. Very good results can be achieved with CP printing screens. If the viscosity
needs to be increased, MIROX VD 65 can be added.
As scattering powder for the top dot we recommend thermoplastic powder (copolyamides or
copolyesters) in a particle size between 80 - 160 µm.
