To store BOPP colored thermosensitive synthetic paper and avoid damage, the following measures can be taken:
1、 Environmental condition control
Temperature and humidity:
The ideal ambient temperature is 23 ± 2 ℃ and the relative humidity is 60%~70%, which can minimize the aging rate of thermal paper.
Avoid extreme environments with high and low temperatures, as high temperatures may cause color fading, paper deformation, and reduced adhesive strength, while low temperatures may affect color development speed and printing clarity.
Avoid light:
Ultraviolet radiation accelerates the decomposition of chemicals in thermal sensitive coatings, leading to fading of handwriting. Therefore, BOPP colored thermosensitive synthetic paper should be stored in a cool and dark place, avoiding direct sunlight exposure.
moisture-proof:
Keep the storage environment dry and prevent the thermal paper from getting damp. Moisture will decompose the chemical components of thermal paper, accelerating its fading process. Moisture resistant paper, film, or plastic bags can be used to seal and package thermal paper to reduce the erosion of moisture and dust.
2、 Storage method
packing:
For printed thermal paper labels, it is recommended to stack them in layers and avoid being too heavy to prevent glue from sticking through.
Plastic film or waterproof paper can be used for sealed packaging to provide better storage conditions for thermal paper.
Stacking method:
The BOPP colored thermosensitive synthetic paper packaged in rolls should be stacked vertically to prevent curling and deformation.
Flat thermal paper should be stored flat, with a height of no more than 1 meter per board, and the goods should be at least 10 centimeters above the ground to prevent moisture and contamination.
3、 Other precautions
Avoid contact with chemicals:
Chemical substances may damage the surface coating of thermal paper, resulting in poor printing performance or inability to print. Therefore, during storage and use, contact with chemicals should be avoided as much as possible.
Regular inspection and cleaning:
Develop the habit of regularly checking and cleaning printing equipment to maintain its cleanliness and normal operation. This helps ensure that thermal paper can print clear and beautiful printed materials normally and stably during the printing process.
Attention to usage period:
Long term storage of thermal paper may affect its effectiveness due to aging. Therefore, attention should be paid to the usage period of thermal paper and it should be used up within the specified period.
In summary, by controlling environmental conditions, selecting appropriate storage methods, and paying attention to other related matters, BOPP colored thermal sensitive synthetic paper can be effectively stored to avoid damage.
