Difference between 120g and 125g sublimation paper

120g and 125g sublimation paper mainly differ in the following aspects:

125g sublimation paper is slightly thicker than 120g sublimation paper. Generally, the heavier the paper, the thicker it is. This makes 125g sublimation paper feel thicker, more rigid during printing and transfer, and less prone to wrinkles and bends.

Generally speaking, 125g sublimation paper with a higher gram weight may have better ink absorption. Because its fiber structure may be tighter and can hold more ink. This helps the ink to penetrate and adhere better during printing, resulting in a more vivid and clear image. In contrast, the ink absorption of 120g sublimation paper may be slightly weaker, and more precise control of printing parameters may be required to achieve the desired printing effect.

Due to its thickness and ink absorption, 125g sublimation paper may have better carrying capacity for dye sublimation and transfer during thermal transfer. It can transfer dye to the transferred object more evenly, making the transferred pattern color fuller, the transition more natural, and may have better scratch and wear resistance. 120g sublimation paper can also meet general needs in transfer effect, but in some applications with extremely high requirements for details and colors, it may not perform as well as 125g sublimation paper.

120g sublimation paper: suitable for some daily printing and transfer scenarios that do not require high paper thickness and pay attention to cost, such as ordinary photo printing, small pattern transfer, etc. It has relatively good flexibility and is suitable for transfer to some curved surfaces or irregular surfaces.

125g sublimation paper: more suitable for occasions with high requirements for printing and transfer quality, such as commercial advertising production, high-quality art reproduction, high-end clothing transfer, etc. Its good stiffness and transfer effect can meet the requirements of these scenarios for pattern accuracy, color saturation, and durability.

Under normal circumstances, 125g sublimation paper is slightly more expensive than 120g sublimation paper due to its relatively high production process and raw material costs. This is also one of the factors that need to be considered when choosing. If you are sensitive to cost and do not have particularly demanding requirements for paper performance, 120g sublimation paper may be a more economical choice.
