Plastisol ink is used for
screen printing on to textiles.
Plastisol screen printing ink is the most commonly used
ink for printing designs on to garments.
Plastisol screen printing ink is not water-soluble. The ink is composed of PVC particles suspended in a plasticizing emulsion, and will not dry if left in the screen for extended periods. Because of the convenience of not needing to wash a screen after printing,
plastisol screen printing ink can be used without a source of running water.
Plastisol screen printing ink is recommended for printing on colored fabric. On lighter fabric,
plastisol screen printing ink is extremely opaque and can retain a bright image for many years with proper care.
