Waterproof adhesive label
The advantages of waterproof adhesive label paper are good adhesion and not easy to peel off. Stamping neat, using stamping machines, easy to peel off, using special materials, easy to peel off. High quality materials, delicate surface materials, not easy to fade, good waterproofing, smooth printing, safe and environmentally friendly.
The purpose of waterproof label paper is for brochures such as maps, traffic maps, engineering drawings, etc. Various waterproof printing materials, glass cutting board stickers, etc. Disposable tableware, drinking utensils, etc. Has non-toxic characteristics. Various securities: can replace copperplate paper, with affordable prices. Advertisements, labels, business cards. It has the characteristics of bright color and durability. Packaging supplies: packaging boxes for tobacco, alcohol, tea, gift handbags, etc. It can be made into exquisite printing. Albums: such as product manuals, various samples, arts and crafts, etc.
Waterproof label paper
Waterproof label paper refers to label paper with waterproof performance and strong tear resistance, usually made of PET material. For example, Asian silver paper labels, bright white PET labels, etc. These materials of label paper themselves have waterproof function. Of course, when choosing label paper, it is necessary to match the corresponding label printer in order to better utilize its performance.
Five advantages of waterproof adhesive label paper:
1. It has a certain degree of strong adhesion and will not easily peel off.
2. Stamping is neat and neat, using stamping machines
3. Different materials have different usage scenarios, and waterproof label paper made of special materials is easy to peel off.
4. High quality materials, delicate surface materials, and not easily faded
5. Strong waterproof, the handwriting will not be blurred even when washed with water, and it is safe and environmentally friendly
Durability label
A durability label consists of top coating, surface material, adhesive layer, release film, adhesive, and other components. Each layer of structure has different functions.
1. The surface material is the basic layer of the label. As the basic material for other layers, the surface material can provide strength, temperature resistance, chemical resistance, and other functions; There are multiple types of surface materials for labels. Paper surface materials have lower costs, but are not resistant to moisture and solvents; Plastic film, with excellent moisture and chemical resistance, is widely used in durability labels, especially PET film, which has high tensile strength and dimensional stability. PVC and PP materials have good adhesion. Polyimide and modified polyester have high temperature resistance, but they are expensive. Compare the characteristics of plastic film surface materials in 3M durability labels from four aspects: temperature resistance, outdoor durability, chemical resistance, and wearability. In practical applications, suitable surface materials can be selected based on factors such as usage environment and cost-effectiveness.
2. The top coating can increase ink adhesion and wear resistance; The top coating can firmly bond the surface layer and ink layer, not only improving the wear resistance and solvent resistance of the ink, but also creating various appearance effects such as matte and glossy. High performance topcoat is the key to achieving high-quality printing results.
3. Adhesive layer. The adhesive layer is an important structure to ensure that the label can be firmly attached.
The surface material, top coating, and adhesive layer are the core components of the entire durability label. Adhesive is also of utmost importance in durability labels.
Classification of waterproof label paper
1. PET label paper: available in various colors such as bright white, matte white, silver, etc., commonly including silver dragon and silver label paper. It has excellent high temperature resistance, chemical corrosion resistance, good waterproof performance, durability, tensile strength, acid and alkali resistance, scratch resistance, friction resistance and other characteristics, but the cost is relatively high. It is used in conjunction with resin based carbon tape printing. Widely used in electrical, electric, and mechanical equipment.
2. Synthetic paper (PP adhesive label paper): Matte white, tough material, good extrusion resistance, and good moisture and waterproof performance; Its cost is lower than PET, and it can be used in combination with mixed and resin based carbon ribbon printing. It has thermal transfer printing performance and is widely used in applications such as electronic components and daily chemical products.
3. PVC adhesive stickers: also known as synthetic paper, have good chemical corrosion resistance and tear resistance, but their temperature resistance and tensile strength are generally affected by temperature; Widely used in applications such as electronics, machinery, batteries, outdoor stickers, etc. Due to the addition of many toxic additives during the production process of PVC labels, which are non recyclable and have poor biodegradability, they have a negative impact on environmental protection. So currently, the application of this label paper in the market is not as good as PET label paper.
4. A mixture of PP and PE (polyolefin): subjected to uniaxial stretching treatment by machine, it has high tensile strength and tear resistance, low opacity, soft material, and extrusion resistance. The material can stretch in one direction to form a straight line, but it appears very hard in another direction. This type of material combines softness and stiffness, with good stiffness in the machine direction and softness in the other direction. It has smooth labeling and good resistance to compression after labeling. It is widely used in daily chemical products.
5. Multi layer sticker synthetic paper (a type of PP material): It looks like paper, matte white, and has undergone biaxial stretching treatment. The material is tough and has good resistance to compression. At the same time, it has good thermal transfer printing performance and a hard material texture, suitable for flat or hard surfaces. It is widely used in electronic components and daily chemical products.
Durable waterproof label
Durable waterproof labels are made of polyester film, which is actually a polymer material. PET has good hardness and brittleness, can withstand certain high temperatures, resist harsh environments, and resist corrosion from chemicals such as acid and alkali. It is very suitable for outdoor and durable high-quality labels. The common colors include matte silver, matte white, bright silver, bright white, and transparent. There are 25 series (1 series=1um), 50 series, 75 series and other specifications according to thickness, which are related to the actual requirements of the manufacturer. Polyester material is thin but has high strength, and the surface coating is conducive to ink adhesion, but it requires UV light to cure during the printing process. High performance adhesives are suitable for various surfaces and can be used for product identification after processing and printing. There will be a moderate increase in in in mold labels.
The growth of lightweight glass bottle applications will continue to increase the use of shrink film labels, while the use of plastic labels for PET bottles will rapidly increase. The value-added and applicability of adhesive labels for glass and plastic containers will further expand.
