The following experiment was conducted for the above examples and comparative examples to examine the properties of the produced thermal sublimation transfer printing paper.

Experiment 1, paper smoothness experiment, refer to GB/T456-2002 paper and board smoothness determinator (Buick method), and determine smoothness of the thermal sublimation transfer printing paper obtained by preparation.

Experiment 2, paper tensile strength determination: the tensile strength of the prepared thermal sublimation transfer printing paper is measured by referring to a constant-speed loading method in GB/T12914-2008 'paper and paperboard tensile strength measurement'.

First, experiments 1 and 2 were performed on examples 1 to 8 and comparative examples 1 to 5, and the results are shown in table 7.

Table 7, examples 1 to 8 and comparative examples 1 to 5 show the results of the experiments

According to the experimental data, compared with the preparation method in the comparative example, the thermal sublimation transfer printing paper prepared by the method has better flatness and tensile strength, and due to the improvement of the tensile strength, fibers on the surface of the paper are not easy to break to form napping points and are not easy to knot, and the flatness is higher, so that the coloring performance is better, and better printing effect can be realized in the transfer printing process.

In examples 4 to 8, the components of sodium metaaluminate, sodium silicate and magnesium sulfate added to the first treating agent are adjusted, and the flatness of the surface of the paper is improved by forming an aluminum silicate-magnesium silicate composite system, which may be based on the principle that the aluminum silicate-magnesium silicate composite system has better adhesion on fibers, and simultaneously, the filler on the formed thermal sublimation transfer printing paper can be uniformly distributed, the stacking phenomenon of the filler is reduced, and the smoothness of the surface of the thermal sublimation transfer printing paper is further improved.

In comparative examples 1 to 5, the phenomenon of reduced tensile strength can be seen, and the reduced tensile strength can cause the surface fibers of the transfer printing paper to be easily broken in the production process, and the broken fibers are easily knotted and wound in the subsequent treatment process, so that the printing paper is not uniformly colored. Meanwhile, there is a more remarkable tendency that comparative examples 1 to 5 all cause a decrease in smoothness, partly due to a decrease in tensile strength, and partly due to uneven distribution of the material and failure to orient the fibers well. The cationic surfactant is absent in the comparative example 2, the nonionic surfactant is selected in the comparative example 4, the anionic surfactant is selected in the comparative example 5, and the three surfactants have obvious influences on the dispersibility of the micelle and the directional arrangement capacity of the fiber, so that the cationic surfactant can be used for better improving the flatness in the technical scheme of the application. In comparative example 3, water-soluble chitosan is absent, so that few amino groups in the system have coupling reaction with dialdehyde starch in the second treating agent, further causing disorder of fiber arrangement in the paper pulp, and reducing the flatness of the prepared thermal sublimation transfer printing paper.

Further, experiments 1 and 2 were performed for examples 9 to 17 and comparative examples 6 to 9, and the results are shown in table 8.

Table 8, examples 9 to 17 and comparative examples 6 to 9

In the technical scheme, the second treating agent is adopted to treat the secondary treatment paper pulp, and the flatness of the prepared thermal sublimation transfer printing paper is further improved by virtue of the coupling effect of dialdehyde starch and the emulsification effect of phospholipid. The strength of the thermal sublimation transfer printing paper is obviously improved by adding the toughening fibers, and the flatness of the thermal sublimation transfer printing paper is also improved from another angle by improving the strength. In examples 14 to 15, sodium pyrophosphate was added to complex a part of the remaining metal ions, and to form a certain coating structure on the formed aluminum silicate-calcium silicate system, and the coated aluminum silicate-calcium silicate system was more stably combined with a filler to form a more warranty structure.

Further, experiments 1 and 2 were performed for examples 18 to 25, and the results are shown in table 9.

Table 9, Experimental results of examples 18 to 2

In the above experimental data, some parameters were further adjusted. Examples 18-20 demonstrate that the use of polycarbonate in the present application has a better toughening effect than other toughening fibers. The reason for this may be that the polycarbonate has good mechanical properties and is overall hard, whereas in examples 25 to 26 the composition of the filler is adjusted. Compared with a single calcium carbonate filler, the composite system of calcium carbonate and silicon dioxide is adopted, and the integral flatness is better.
