Thermal paper label is one of the important printing materials in modern society and is widely used in many fields such as life, industry, commerce, and logistics. Different applications require different materials to achieve the best printing results. This article will introduce several common materials of thermal paper label.
Thermal paper is a material that prints information on paper through thermal printing technology. It has the characteristics of fast printing speed, easy use, etc., and the price is relatively cheap, so it is widely used in many applications. However, the printed content on thermal paper is easily affected by environmental factors such as high temperature and humidity, making the printed content easy to disappear or change color. Therefore, thermal paper is suitable for some simpler and easier-to-save label printing needs.
- Thermal transfer paper
Thermal transfer paper is a material that transfers printed content to the label surface through thermal transfer technology. It has higher durability and stability, and can maintain the clarity and color of printed content in harsher environments. Thermal transfer paper is suitable for label printing that requires long storage time, water resistance, oil resistance, scratch resistance and other characteristics.
- Polyester film
Polyester film has good water resistance, oil resistance, high temperature resistance, etc., and also has good gloss and transparency, making it widely used in label printing situations that require high-quality visual effects. Polyester film can print high-definition, high-contrast images and text content on the label surface through various methods such as digital printing technology and screen printing technology.
- PVC film
PVC film is made of polyvinyl chloride and has excellent waterproof, oil-proof, and ultraviolet resistance properties. It is mainly used for product label printing that requires strong moisture-proof, waterproof, and oil-proof functions, such as washing labels, auto parts labels, medical supplies labels, etc.
- PET film
PET film is made of polyester resin and can withstand high tension and tear strength. It has good water resistance, oil resistance, high temperature resistance and other characteristics, and has good penetrability, which can make the label more transparent. PET film is mainly used for label printing that requires long-term storage and strong anti-counterfeiting performance.
