Abstract
Screen printing technique is used to apply transfer images to a wide variety of substrates. PVC foils can also be used as substrates. In the screen printing process on PVC foils different type of substrates, inks, as well as different mesh types, can be used. In this research, we used two types of substrates (ORACAL 640 - Print Vinyl and LG Hausys LP2712), three different kinds of ink (Hi-Gloss 35 000, 85 000 and Ondaflut Texilon 58.000), and screens with three different mesh counts (77, 120 and 140 n/ cm). These substrates are exposed to various environmental factors including, light, etc. The aim of this paper is to determine differences between samples caused by variation of mentioned parameters on lightfastness.
