There are several major differences between three and five thermal sensitive paper, which are mainly reflected in the number of protective layers, performance characteristics and application scenarios. The following is a detailed summary of the differences between the two types of thermal paper:
Number of protective layers:
Three heat-proof paper: only one protective layer.
Five heat sensitive paper: with two layers of protection, to provide more comprehensive protection.
Performance characteristics:
Three heat-proof paper: it mainly has the basic performance of moisture-proof, oil-proof and friction-proof. The surface raw material of this paper has a high gloss and smoothness, the printing effect is clear, and has a certain scratch resistance. In addition, it also has strong viscosity and is not easy to fall, which can ensure the stability of the label.
Five thermal sensitive paper: on the basis of the three defenses, it increases the more stringent waterproof and oil-proof performance, and has stronger friction resistance and corrosion resistance. In addition, the five thermal sensitive paper also has strong tear and tensile resistance, which makes it can remain intact in harsh environments. The surface of the thermal sensitive paper has a thick protective layer, and the bottom paper is also selected with strong toughness and tear resistant label paper, which greatly improves its durability.
Application scenario:
Three thermal paper: due to its basic protective performance and moderate price, three thermal paper is widely used in general indoor environment label printing, such as shopping malls and supermarkets electronic scale paper, clothing labels and international logistics and other fields.
Five thermal paper: Due to its excellent protective performance and durability, five thermal paper is more suitable for use in extreme environments, such as outdoor, coastal and other complex environments. It can meet the high performance requirements of label paper in these environments.
In summary, there are significant differences in the number of protective layers, performance characteristics and application scenarios between the three thermal protection paper and the five thermal protection paper. The choice of thermal paper depends on the specific use environment and needs.
