What are the typical technical parameters for enhancing hybrid carbon ribbons?

The technical parameters for enhancing mixed carbon ribbon typically include the following aspects:

1、 Basic physical parameters

Carbon ribbon width: Common width ranges include 30mm to 110mm, and may even reach 160mm. Carbon ribbons of different widths are suitable for printing needs of different sizes.

Carbon ribbon length: There are various lengths, such as 70 meters, 90 meters, or 300 meters, depending on the application scenario and printing requirements.

Carbon ribbon thickness: usually between a few micrometers and a dozen micrometers, such as 4.5 ± 0.2 micrometers or 8 ± 0.3 micrometers. The choice of carbon ribbon thickness will affect the printing effect and durability.

Film thickness: It is related to the thickness of the carbon ribbon and usually ranges from a few micrometers, such as 4.5 ± 0.3 micrometers.

2、 Chemical and Physical Properties

Raw material type: Reinforced mixed carbon ribbon is usually made by mixing wax, resin, and high-performance materials such as carbon nanotubes or graphene.

Melting point: Generally between 70 ℃ and 80 ℃, the specific melting point depends on the formula and manufacturing process of the carbon ribbon. The melting point will affect the printing temperature and printing effect of carbon ribbon.

Back coating: Materials such as silicone oil are usually used as back coatings to protect the print head and reduce wear.

Friction coefficient: obtained through specific experimental instruments (such as 200g weight experiment), used to evaluate the anti friction ability of carbon ribbon.

3、 Printing performance parameters

Printing density: Refers to the ink coverage and uniformity of carbon ribbon during the printing process, usually expressed in color density, such as 1.9 to 2.1.

Printing speed: usually measured in inches per second (IPS), it represents the speed at which the ribbon moves in the printer. Different printing speeds can affect the printing effect and efficiency.

Printing temperature: refers to the temperature range required for the carbon ribbon during the printing process. Enhanced hybrid carbon ribbon typically has a wide printing temperature range to accommodate different printing needs and printer models.

Printing humidity: Refers to the humidity range required for the carbon ribbon during the printing process. Humidity has a certain impact on the printing effect, so it is necessary to print within the specified humidity range.

4、 Durability and adaptability parameters

Heat resistance: Enhanced hybrid carbon ribbons typically have high heat resistance and can maintain stable printing effects in high-temperature environments.

Chemical solvent resistance: able to resist the erosion of various chemical solvents, maintaining the clarity and integrity of printed content.

Scratch resistance: It has strong scratch resistance and can maintain the clarity of the label after long-term use or friction.

Label adaptability: It can be applied to various materials, such as copperplate paper, hang tags, cardboard, high-quality copperplate paper, synthetic paper, etc., and has a wide range of label adaptability.

5、 Other parameters

Storage conditions: including storage temperature and humidity to ensure the stable performance of the carbon ribbon during storage.

Certification and licensing: such as REACH, ROHS2.0, ISO9001/14001, MSDS, etc., indicate that the carbon ribbon meets relevant environmental and safety standards.

In summary, enhancing the technical parameters of hybrid carbon ribbon involves multiple aspects, including basic physical parameters, chemical and physical properties, printing performance parameters, durability and adaptability parameters, and other parameters. These parameters collectively determine the key performance of carbon ribbon, such as printing effect, durability, and adaptability.
