Long-lasting thermal paper can be stored for up to 15 years, mainly due to its unique material, coating formula and good storage environment. The following is a detailed explanation of this phenomenon:


I. Unique material and coating formula

Multi-layer structure: long-acting thermal paper generally adopts multi-layer structure, including paper base, thermal coating and protective layer. This structure not only improves the strength and stability of the paper, but also helps to extend the storage time of the printed content.

High quality thermal coating: The thermal coating of long-acting thermal paper is specially formulated and designed to be stable at room temperature and not easily affected by external environmental factors. A high quality heat-sensitive coating formulation is the key to ensuring long-term preservation of the paper.

Efficient protective layer: The protective layer is essential for the preservation of long-lasting thermal paper. It can absorb some of the light that causes the chemical reaction of the thermal coating, thus slowing the deterioration of the printing paper. At the same time, the protective layer can also protect the thermal components of the printer from damage, improve the printing quality and stability.

Second, good preservation environment

Avoid high temperature and high humidity: High temperature and high humidity environment will accelerate the chemical reaction speed of thermal paper, resulting in fading or blurring of the printed content. Therefore, storing long-acting thermal paper in a dry, cool environment can help extend its shelf life.

Sun protection and moisture: Direct sunlight and humid air will adversely affect the preservation of thermal paper. Sun protection prevents UV rays from damaging the heat-sensitive coating; Moisture-proof measures can prevent moisture from breaking down the chemical components of the color of the thermal paper.

Avoid contact with chemicals: Certain chemicals such as solvents, plasticizers, etc., may react with the heat-sensitive coating, causing the printed content to deteriorate. Therefore, when storing and using long-acting thermal paper, contact with these chemicals should be avoided.

Third, technological progress and market demand

With the continuous progress of technology and the increase of market demand, the production process and formula of long-acting thermal paper are also constantly optimized and improved. This allows long-acting thermal paper to have a longer shelf life while maintaining high-quality printing results.


In summary, the long-term thermal paper can be preserved for 15 years, due to its unique material and coating formula, good preservation environment and technological progress and market demand and other factors. In practical applications, in order to ensure the long-term preservation effect of long-term thermal paper, users should be stored and used in strict accordance with the requirements of the product manual.
