The durability of thermal paper labels refers to their ability to maintain clear and readable information and images after printing under specific conditions. This durability is affected by a number of factors, including the following:
Light stability: When the thermal paper label is exposed to light for a certain period of time, the text and images on it can remain stable, and will not be faded or blurred by light. This is one of the important indicators to measure the durability of thermal paper labels.
Humidity stability: In an environment where humidity changes, the thermal paper label should be able to maintain the clarity of the printed content. No change in humidity will cause the print to blur or disappear.
Friction resistance: The thermal paper label should have a certain friction resistance, that is, in the normal use process, the text and images on the label will not be easily damaged or blurred because of friction. This helps ensure the readability of the label during transportation, storage and use.
Storage time: The durability of thermal paper labels is also reflected in their storage time. High quality thermal paper labels can be stored for a long time and remain clear under suitable storage conditions. In general, good heat-sensitive label paper can be stored for 5 years or more after printing. However, poor quality thermal paper may only last a few months.
In summary, the durability of thermal paper labels is a comprehensive index, including light stability, humidity stability, friction resistance and preservation time. These factors together determine the service life and reliability of thermal paper labels in practical applications.
