Stickers Material FAQs
Dry lamination (coating adhesive on the substrate -> drying solvent -> hot-pressing lamination with another layer of material) Wet lamination (coating water-based adhesive on the substrate -> directly laminating with another layer of material -> co-drying) Extrusion lamination/coating (Extruding molten plastic (such as PE), directly coating it onto the substrate and simultaneously laminating it with another layer of material) Hot melt lamination (bonding using hot melt adhesive (solvent-free))
PET (polyester), BOPP (biaxial polypropylene), PE (polyethylene), CPP (cast polypropylene), PA (nylon), PVC, etc.
Prevention (Clean the surface of the quilt to ensure it is free of dust; Uniform pressure application, repair (small bubbles: prick holes with a fine needle and then flatten), lifted edges (local heating followed by heavy pressure application, suitable for hot-pressed film application)
1-3 mils (25-75μm) : Thin type, suitable for documents and posters. 5-10mil (125-250μm) : Universal type, used for certificates and menus. ≥10mil (>250μm) : Hardened protection, suitable for ID cards and work badges.
Protection (anti-scratch, waterproof, anti-stain), enhancement of appearance (shiny, matte effect), reinforcement (increased thickness and hardness).
Laminated film is a kind of thin film material that is combined with paper, printed matter, cards and other substrates through bonding process (heating or normal temperature pressure), and is mainly used for protecting, decorating or strengthening the substrate. Its core functions include water resistance, tear resistance, UV resistance, and enhancing texture (such as gloss), and it is widely used in office work, printing, packaging, documentation and other fields.
1. Clean the substrate: The surface of the substrate must be dry and free of dust; otherwise, it will affect the bonding effect. 2. Uniform pressure: When manually pressing, a scraper can be used to push from the center to the edge to expel air. 3. Environmentally friendly options: Prioritize the use of cold-laminated films made of PET material to avoid the release of harmful substances by PVC.
1. Temperature control: Adjust the temperature according to the film thickness (high temperature is required for thick films) to prevent the material from being damaged by excessively high temperatures or delamination caused by excessively low temperatures. 2. Anti-bubble: Ensure that the base material is aligned with the film and the machine passes through at a uniform speed; otherwise, bubbles are likely to form. 3. Equipment safety: Keep the high-temperature components of the hot mounting machine away from children. Wait for it to cool down after operation before cleaning.
Thermal laminated film is a material that bonds the film to substrates such as paper and printed matter through high-temperature heating. It is mainly used for protecting, reinforcing or decorating various media. The core principle is to use the hot melt adhesive layer at the edge or inside of the film to melt at high temperatures and tightly bond with the substrate through pressure, forming a solid protective layer
Cold laminating film is a kind of film material that can be directly bonded to substrates such as paper, photos and printed matter under pressure without heating. It is mainly used for protection, decoration or to enhance the durability of materials. Unlike traditional hot laminating films (which require high-temperature heating for lamination), cold laminating films rely on the adhesion of adhesives to achieve lamination, making the operation more convenient and suitable for materials sensitive to high temperatures.
