The invention relates to a method and a device for fixing cotton fabric reactive ink
inkjet printing. The method comprises the following: (1) a step of pretreating fabric, which is to make thickener into stock thickener, dissolve alkaline agent,
urea and antifoaming agent in water, add the alkaline agent, the
urea and the antifoaming agent to the stock thickener, evenly mix the mixture so as to form a pretreatment solution, pad the fabric with the pretreatment solution and then dry the fabric; (2) a step of performing
inkjet printing, which is to adopt
reactive dye ink to perform
inkjet printing to the pretreated fabric on a digital inkjet printing
machine; and (3) a step of after-treating the fabric, which is to adjust
humidity of the jet-printed fabric for 4 hours, adopt a contact-type dry-heat fixation device, regulate the temperature of a heating plate to be between 150 and 160 DEG C, set the
treatment time to be between 40 and 80 seconds, complete fixation through contact-type dry-heat treatment, wash and dry or air the fabric, so as to obtain a finished product. The invention has the advantages of convenient operation of technological process, strong flexibility and high fixation rate, and solves the problems existing in small-batch
steaming fixation.
