Waterproof label paper category
1. PET label paper: available in various colors such as bright white, matte white, silver, etc., commonly including silver dragon and sub 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, etc., 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 self-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, with good chemical corrosion resistance and tear resistance, but average temperature resistance and tensile strength, which are 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. Synthetic paper multi-layer sticker (a type of PP material): It looks like paper, has a matte white color, has undergone biaxial stretching treatment, is tough in material, 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
Waterproof stickers mainly come in the following materials
PVC (polyvinyl chloride): There are two types: soft and hard, with good durability, tear resistance, flexibility, and chemical corrosion resistance. It is widely used in electronics, machinery, batteries, and outdoor applications.
PET (polyester): excellent high temperature resistance, durability, and tensile strength, good chemical corrosion resistance, high stiffness, multiple colors, can be metalized, and transparent materials have excellent transparency.
PP (polypropylene): biaxially stretched by machine, also known as BOPP, has high hardness, good tensile strength, good opacity, excellent durability, but average temperature resistance.
Synthetic paper (a type of PP material): It looks like paper, has a matte white color, and has undergone biaxial stretching treatment. The material is tough and has good resistance to compression.
