Rhinestone iron on patches’ process

Hot diamond(rhinestone) technology is to set diamonds on leather, cloth, and other materials. We often use rhinestone iron-on patches on fabrics, clothing, or fabric accessories. The working principle is that when the rhinestone encounters high temperature, the adhesive layer at the bottom of the drill melts. So, it sticks to the object.

Because most diamonds are crystal or glass. Thereby, they are not afraid of high temperatures. Common temperatures are around 150-200℃. At present, rhinestone on clothing has become a fashion trend. Moreover, as a kind of garment accessories, they can add beauty and value to the clothes.

How do we judge the quality of rhinestones?

1. Check the appearance:

• First look at the cutting surface of the rhinestones. The flatter the cut surface, the higher its refractive index and the better the brightness.
• Next, see if the cut surface is even. Incised teeth, scratches, and air bubbles are defective products.
• The rhinestone patch has strict requirements and a complex process. But, the yield is not very high. Diamonds with a defective rate of 3%-5% should be considered good products.
• Then see if the diamonds are the same size. The diameter of SS6 is 1.9-2.1mm. While the size of SS10 is 2.7-2.9mm.
• Finally, you should also see whether its height is consistent.

2. Look at the adhesive

Flip the diamond over to see the color of the adhesive on the back. See if the color is even and consistent. And the color can’t be in different shades. If it is vibrant and uniform in color, it is a good diamond.

3. Check the firmness

The higher the solubility of the back glue, the better the firmness of the rhinestone. The best way to identify a diamond is to wash it in the washing machine after it has been ironed. So, if the adhesive does not come off after washing, it proves that it has good fastness. After washing it off, it proves that the firmness of the glue is not good.
