The stability performance of long-acting thermal paper under different environmental conditions will be affected by a variety of factors, including temperature, humidity, light, chemical solvents and so on. The following is a detailed analysis of its stability:


1. Temperature conditions

Suitable temperature: Long-acting thermosensitive paper can usually maintain good stability at room temperature (such as 20°C to 25°C), and its performance is not easily affected by temperature fluctuations.

High temperature environment: Under high temperature conditions (such as more than 30°C), the coating on thermal paper may accelerate aging, causing the information to fade or blur. Therefore, avoiding long-term exposure to a high temperature environment is the key to maintaining the stability of long-acting heat-resistant paper.

Low temperature environment: Although low temperature has a small direct impact on long-acting thermal sensitive paper, too low temperature may affect the printing effect, such as ink solidification resulting in unclear printing.


2. Humidity conditions

Suitable humidity: In a relatively dry environment, the stability of long-acting heat-resistant paper is good, and it is not easy to be damp or deformed.

High humidity environment: In a high humidity environment for a long time, the paper may absorb water leading to expansion, deformation, and even affect the coating performance, thereby shortening the storage time of information.

Waterproof performance: long-acting three heat-resistant paper has a certain waterproof performance, can resist moisture erosion to a certain extent, but long-term immersion or large area of water may still be damaged.


3. Lighting conditions

Avoid prolonged light exposure: Prolonged exposure to strong light will accelerate the aging process of the heat-sensitive coating, causing the information to fade. Therefore, the long-acting three heat sensitive paper should be stored in a light or low light environment.

Ultraviolet protection: ultraviolet light is one of the main factors that accelerate the aging of thermal paper. Some long-acting triple-heat-resistant papers may have UV absorbers added to improve their anti-aging ability.


4. Chemical solvents

Oil-proof and alcohol-proof properties: long-acting heat-proof paper usually has the characteristics of oil-proof and alcohol-proof chemical solvents, which can resist the erosion of these solvents to a certain extent.

Avoid contact: However, prolonged or heavy exposure to certain highly corrosive chemical solvents may still cause damage to the paper. Therefore, direct contact with these solvents should be avoided during use.


5. Wear and friction resistance

Wear-resistant coating: The surface of the long-acting tri-thermal paper may be coated with a wear-resistant layer to improve its friction resistance and reduce information blurring or shedding due to frequent contact or friction.

Protection: Despite its wear resistance, it is necessary to protect the surface of the paper from mechanical damage under extreme conditions of use.


In summary, the stability of long-acting heat-resistant paper under different environmental conditions depends on the comprehensive effect of a variety of factors. In order to maintain its best performance and service life, it is recommended to pay attention to the control of temperature, humidity and light conditions during use, avoid direct contact with chemical solvents, and take appropriate protective measures to reduce mechanical damage. At the same time, choosing the right storage environment and storage method is also the key to ensuring the stability of long-acting heat-resistant paper.
