What is the difference between a mixed base TTO ribbon and a resin-based TTO ribbon?

The difference between the mixed base TTO ribbon and the resin-based TTO ribbon is mainly reflected in the following aspects:

Material composition:

Mixed base TTO ribbon is made of a mixture of carbon fiber and glass fiber.

The resin-based TTO ribbon is composed of pure carbon fiber and resin.

Mechanical properties:

Resin-based TTO ribbons typically have higher strength, stiffness and hardness, while being lighter, but at a relatively high price.

The mixed base TTO ribbon is relatively more cost-effective, but its mechanical properties are slightly inferior to the resin ribbon.

Corrosion resistance:

Due to the high resin content in the resin ribbon, it may be more susceptible to erosion in some corrosive environments.

The mixed base TTO ribbon has better corrosion resistance due to the addition of glass fiber.

Service life:

The service life of the resin ribbon is generally long, and it can usually be used for more than ten years.

The service life of mixed base TTO ribbon is relatively short due to the limitation of the material.

Application features:

TTO ribbon can generally provide clear, durable printing results on a variety of materials, and has good wear and chemical resistance. Both mixed base and resin-based TTO ribbons support high-speed printing, which improves production efficiency and is widely adapted to different printing environments and requirements.

The characteristics of the mixed base TTO ribbon are that its film thickness is thinner than the general ribbon, the sensitivity of printing is better, and it is suitable for various films, and can achieve high concentration, high quality and high speed printing, and the printed text is scratch-resistant.

Resin based TTO ribbon is especially suitable for PET, PVC, synthetic paper and other labels, with scratch resistance, solvent resistance, high temperature resistance.

In summary, there are obvious differences in material composition, mechanical properties, corrosion resistance, service life and application characteristics between the mixed base TTO ribbon and the resin-based TTO ribbon. The choice of which ribbon to use needs to be considered according to the actual application needs and budget.
