What are the new materials used in small rolls of thermal label paper?

The new materials applied to small rolls of thermal label paper mainly include innovative materials designed to improve the performance, environmental protection and adaptability of the label paper. Here are some specific examples of new materials:

1. Environmentally friendly thermal coating material:

With the improvement of global awareness of environmental protection, environmentally friendly thermal coating materials have been widely concerned. These materials reduce their environmental impact during manufacturing and are more sustainable in terms of recycling. For example, the water-based zinc stearate for thermal paper produced by nanocomposite technology is not only non-toxic and harmless, but also can improve the lubricity and hydrophobicity of the coating, while having good heat resistance and transparency, which is the ideal choice for environmentally friendly thermal label paper.

2. High durability materials:

In order to meet the challenges of various harsh environments on label paper, researchers have developed heat-sensitive coating materials with high durability. These materials can maintain the clarity and readability of the label under high temperature, high humidity, chemical corrosion and other conditions, extending the service life of the label paper. This is especially important for labels that need to be used outdoors or in extreme environments.

3. Special functional materials:

With the diversification of market demand, some thermal label paper materials with special functions have also emerged. For example, the waterproof, oil-resistant, scratch-resistant thermal label paper material can ensure that the label can be maintained in good condition in a variety of use scenarios. In addition, there are color-changing thermal label paper materials that can change color according to changes in conditions such as temperature or light, providing more possibilities for the application of label paper.

4. Bio-based materials:

Bio-based materials are a new type of environmental protection materials, which are derived from renewable resources, such as plants and microorganisms. The application of bio-based materials in thermal label paper can not only reduce the dependence on traditional petroleum-based chemicals, reduce carbon emissions in the production process, but also improve the environmental performance of the label paper. However, at present, the application of bio-based materials in thermal label paper is still in the research stage, and further technological breakthroughs and cost optimization are needed.

5. Smart label materials:

With the development of Internet of Things technology, smart label materials are also gradually applied to thermal label paper. These materials can integrate sensors, RFID chips and other components to achieve intelligent label management. For example, smart labels can monitor environmental parameters such as temperature and humidity of goods in real time to ensure the safe transportation and storage of goods. Although the scope of application of smart label materials is relatively limited, they have brought new development opportunities for the thermal label industry.

It is important to note that the application of new materials is often accompanied by technical challenges and cost issues. Therefore, when selecting new materials, it is necessary to comprehensively consider market demand, technology maturity, production costs and other factors to ensure that the application of new materials can bring actual economic and social benefits. At the same time, with the continuous progress of science and technology and the constant changes in the market, the application of new materials will continue to innovate, bringing more innovation and development opportunities for the thermal label industry.
