What are the environmental requirements for storing colored full resin carbon ribbons?

When storing colored full resin carbon ribbons, there are certain environmental requirements to ensure the quality and performance of the ribbons are maintained. The following are specific requirements for the storage environment:

1、 Temperature requirements

Colored full resin carbon ribbon should be stored within a suitable temperature range. Usually, the recommended storage temperature range is between 5 ℃ and 35 ℃ (there are also claims that it should be between 5 ℃ and 30 ℃). Avoid exposing the carbon ribbon to excessively high or low temperature environments, as this may cause aging, deformation, or performance degradation of the carbon ribbon material.

2、 Humidity requirements

Humidity is also an important factor affecting the quality of carbon ribbon storage. It is recommended to store colored full resin carbon ribbons under conditions of relative humidity ranging from 20% to 85%. Excessive humidity may cause the carbon ribbon to become damp, thereby affecting its printing effect and shelf life; However, low humidity may cause the carbon ribbon material to become dry and fragile.

3、 Lighting and dust prevention requirements

Avoid direct sunlight: Prolonged exposure to sunlight can accelerate the aging of carbon ribbon materials and reduce their service life. Therefore, the carbon ribbon should be stored in a dark place to avoid direct sunlight.

Dust prevention: Dust and impurities may adhere to the carbon ribbon, affecting its printing quality. Therefore, when storing carbon ribbons, dust prevention measures should be taken, such as using sealed bags or boxes to store the ribbons.

4、 Ventilation requirements

If there are ventilation openings in the storage environment, they can be opened appropriately to maintain ventilation and keep the resin ribbon in a drier environment. However, it should be noted that the ventilation opening should avoid blowing directly towards the carbon ribbon to prevent excessive local drying of the carbon ribbon.

5、 Storage time and precautions

Storage time: Generally speaking, the shelf life of colored full resin carbon ribbon is about one year, but the actual service life is closely related to the storage method. Under suitable storage conditions, the service life of carbon ribbon can be extended.

Regular inspection: During storage, the condition of the carbon ribbon should be checked regularly to ensure that it has not been damaged or contaminated.

Avoid heavy pressure: When storing carbon ribbons, heavy objects should be avoided from pressing on them to prevent deformation or damage to the ribbons.

In summary, when storing colored full resin carbon ribbons, environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, lighting, dust prevention, and ventilation should be strictly controlled to ensure the quality and performance of the ribbons are maintained. Meanwhile, it is also necessary to pay attention to storage time and regular inspections to extend the service life of the carbon ribbon.
