What are the main materials of small roll thermal label paper?

The materials of small roll thermal label paper are diverse, which can mainly be summarized as follows:

1. Thermal paper

Thermal paper is the most common thermal label paper material, and its main feature is that it has a thermal coating. Thermal paper forms an image or text by heating the print head to dissolve pigments on the thermal coating. Thermal paper has the advantages of fast printing speed, easy to use, low printing cost and environmental protection, and is widely used in the fields of receipts, labels and invoices. However, ordinary thermal paper may not have waterproof, oil-proof and other functions, and special treatment of three thermal paper needs to be selected according to specific needs.

2. Synthetic paper

Synthetic paper is a kind of artificial material that simulates paper, which has the characteristics of water, oil and tear resistance. It combines the texture of paper with the durability of plastic, making it ideal for labeling applications where high durability is required. Small roll portable thermal synthetic paper is a product that combines thermal printing technology and synthetic paper material, which is widely used in logistics, retail, medical, food and other industries.

3. PET (Polyethylene terephthalate)

PET is a commonly used plastic material with excellent physical properties and chemical stability. PET thermal label paper not only has good water and oil resistance, but also has high temperature resistance and wear resistance. This material of thermal label paper is especially suitable for long-term storage or use in harsh environments.

4. PP (Polypropylene)

PP is a semi-crystalline thermoplastic with good chemical resistance, heat resistance and impact resistance. PP thermal label paper also has a certain waterproof, oil-proof ability, and the cost is relatively low. However, compared with PET, the performance of PP may be slightly inferior in some aspects.

5. Other special materials

In addition to the above main materials, there are some special materials of heat-sensitive label paper, such as PVC (polyvinyl chloride), fragile paper, etc. Thermal label paper of these materials usually has a specific purpose and function, such as PVC thermal label paper may have higher wear resistance and weather resistance; Fragile paper is often used in fields such as anti-counterfeiting seals.

Sum up

The materials of small roll thermal label paper are diverse, mainly including thermal paper, synthetic paper, PET, PP and so on. Different materials of thermal label paper have different performance and use, users should be based on the actual needs and use of the environment when choosing a comprehensive consideration. At the same time, with the development and innovation of science and technology, more new materials of thermal label paper may appear in the future to meet market demand.
