What are the differences between all-resin and wax-based carbon bands?

The differences between all-resin carbon strip and wax-based carbon strip are mainly reflected in material composition, physical properties, printing effect, durability, cost and application scenarios.

1. Material composition:

The all-resin carbon strip is mainly composed of carbon fiber and epoxy resin, providing high strength and high modulus characteristics.

The wax-based carbon strip is mainly composed of wax and carbon black, and contains a high proportion of wax-based raw materials, so it has soft physical properties.

2. Physical properties:

The all-resin carbon strip has high rigidity and can withstand greater pressure without deformation, ensuring the accuracy and stability of printing.

The wax-based carbon strip is relatively soft and can better adapt to the pressure of the print head, but it is relatively fragile and easy to be damaged by external forces.

3. Print effect:

The full resin carbon tape printing effect is clear, bright and wear-resistant, which can ensure that the label information will not be blurred or faded during long-term use.

The printing effect of wax-based carbon tape is usually excellent, but the wear resistance is poor, and the printed content is susceptible to friction and wear away.

4. Durability:

All resin carbon tape has excellent scratch, smear, chemical and high temperature resistance, suitable for use in harsh environments.

Wax-based carbon bands have poor wear resistance and temperature adaptability, and may become rigid at low temperatures or melt at high temperatures.

5. Cost:

All-resin carbon tape is usually more expensive due to the use of high-performance resin materials.

The cost of wax-based carbon tape is relatively low, and it is more suitable for situations where the printing effect is not high or the budget is limited.

6. Application scenario:

All resin carbon tape is widely used in aerospace, automobile manufacturing, sports equipment and other fields, to meet the requirements of high material properties of the application scenario.

Wax-based carbon tape is more suitable for retail, logistics and other applications that have certain requirements for printing effects but have limited costs.

To sum up, there are significant differences between all-resin carbon bands and wax-based carbon bands in many aspects. When choosing, users should choose the appropriate carbon belt products according to their actual needs and budget situation.
