How to extend the service life of three heat-resistant label paper?

In order to extend the service life of the heat-sensitive label paper, you can start from the following aspects:

1. Environmental condition control

Temperature and humidity: The ideal ambient temperature is 23±2 ° C, and the relative humidity is 60% to 70% or 65%±5%. Under such conditions, the aging rate of thermal paper can be minimized.

Avoid light: Avoid direct sunlight on the thermal paper, because ultraviolet light will accelerate the decomposition of chemicals in the thermal coating, resulting in fading of the writing. Heat-sensitive paper should be stored in a cool, dark place.

Moisture-proof: Keep the storage environment dry to avoid moisture on the thermal paper. Because the moisture will decompose the chemical composition of the thermal paper hair color, accelerate its fading process.

2. Correct storage method

Sealed packaging: Use moisture-proof paper, film or plastic bag to seal the thermal paper to reduce the erosion of air, moisture and dust on the thermal paper. For thermal paper labels that have been printed, it is recommended to layer them and avoid excessive weight to prevent glue from sticking through.

Vertical stacking: For rolled thermal paper, vertical stacking should be done to prevent curling and deformation. Flat sheets of thermal paper should be stored flat, the height of each board should not exceed 1 meter, and the goods should be more than 10 cm off the ground to prevent moisture and pollution.

Packaging: The label should have an outer packaging, it is recommended that plastic film sealed packaging, each time after use to seal the packaging, to provide better storage conditions for the label.

3. Precautions during use

Avoid friction and scratching: During use, try to avoid rubbing or cutting the label with sharp objects to maintain the integrity of the label.

Keep it dry: Avoid label contact with water or oil to prevent label damage.

Clean the surface: During the label attaching process, ensure that the surface of the label is dry and clean to improve the attaching effect and durability of the label.

4. Regular inspection and maintenance

Check the equipment: Develop the habit of regularly checking and cleaning the printing equipment to keep the printing equipment clean and normal operation. This helps to ensure that the thermal paper can normally and stably print clear, beautiful prints during the printing process.

Check label quality: Regularly check the quality of labels, including printing clarity, stickiness, etc., to find and deal with problem labels in a timely manner.

5. Special protection measures

Plastic or cold mounting: For documents or labels printed on thermal paper that need to be stored for a long time, you can consider using plastic sealing or cold mounting for protection. However, it should be noted that plastic sealing or cold mounting can not completely prevent the fading of thermal paper, and the plastic sealing process may require heating, which may accelerate the aging of thermal paper. Therefore, it is recommended to use cold mounting, and use non-adhesive plastic film and cold mounting film for packaging.

Copying or scanning: Copying or scanning the contents of thermal paper into an electronic document for storage is the most reliable way to preserve thermal paper information for a long time. This can not only avoid the fading of thermal paper due to environmental factors, but also facilitate information sharing and backup.

In summary, by controlling environmental conditions, correct storage methods, precautions during use, regular inspection and maintenance, and special protection measures, the service life of the heat-sensitive label paper can be effectively extended.
