What is the difference between thermal paper and ordinary thermal paper

The difference between thermal paper and ordinary thermal paper can be clearly summarized as follows:

Protection performance:

Five heat sensitive paper: provides excellent multiple protection, including water, oil, acid and alkali resistance, high temperature and wear resistance. This paper can maintain the clarity and integrity of the label in harsh environments.

Ordinary thermal paper: usually only has the basic waterproof function, and this waterproof performance is relatively weak. After a long time of use, the writing on ordinary thermal paper may turn yellow and pale.

Service life:

Five thermal sensitive paper: because of its strong protective layer and protective measures, five thermal sensitive paper has a longer service life. It can maintain the clarity of the printed content under various environmental conditions and has a long shelf life.

Ordinary thermal paper: Due to its weak protective performance, the printed content on ordinary thermal paper is prone to fade or blur due to external factors, so the service life is relatively short.

Application scenario:

Heat sensitive paper: suitable for a variety of occasions requiring high durability and multi-functional protection, such as outdoor environment, industrial production lines, logistics and warehousing. In these environments, thermal paper ensures the readability and durability of label information.

Ordinary thermal paper: more suitable for some occasions that do not require high label durability, such as office printing, temporary labels, etc. In these applications, ordinary thermal paper is able to meet basic printing needs, but may not be able to maintain the clarity of the printed content for a long time.

Price:

Five thermal paper: Due to its high performance and complex production process, the price of five thermal paper is usually higher than that of ordinary thermal paper.

Ordinary thermal paper: As a common printing material, the price of ordinary thermal paper is relatively close to the people, and it is suitable for large-scale consumption scenes.

In summary, there are significant differences between thermal paper and ordinary thermal paper in terms of protective performance, service life, application scenarios and price. Which paper you choose depends on your specific application needs and budget considerations.
