Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) Film
PET film (often referred to as polyester film) is a high-performance film,
divided into Biaxially Oriented PET (BOPET) and non-oriented PET.
Among them, BOPET is a high-end choice for flexible packaging printing
due to its high strength and good stability.
- Advantages: - Excellent mechanical properties, resistant to stretching, tearing, and puncturing,
making it suitable for high-speed printing and complex processing; - High transparency and strong gloss, with high color reproduction after printing,
ideal for packaging requiring high visual texture; - Good temperature resistance (can withstand above 150°C),
suitable for high-temperature sterilization or retort packaging (e.g., high-temperature sterilized food bags); - Superior barrier properties compared to PE and PP (stronger resistance to oxygen and moisture),
along with good chemical resistance, not easily eroded by oils and solvents.
- Disadvantages: - Higher cost than PE and PP, not suitable for low-priced products; - Poor heat-sealing performance, unable to be directly heat-sealed,
requiring lamination with heat-sealing layers such as PE or CPP; - Toughness slightly decreases at low temperatures, but still better than PP.
- Applicable Scenarios: 1) High-end food packaging (e.g., nuts, dried meat), cosmetic bags, pharmaceutical packaging
(e.g., composite layer of aluminum-plastic blisters);
2)and temperature-resistant packaging (e.g., instant noodle seasoning bags).
