In the process of producing three proof thermal paper, some harmful chemicals may indeed be produced. These substances mainly come from the chemical composition in the thermosensitive coating and may be released or residual during the manufacturing process. The following is a detailed analysis of the harmful chemicals that may be produced in the production of three proof thermal paper:


1. Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs)

Cause: Thermal paper releases VOCs during heating, which may include harmful substances such as benzene and formaldehyde.

Harm: Long term exposure to these substances may pose potential hazards to human health, such as respiratory diseases and allergic reactions.

2. Bisphenol A (BPA)

Cause: Some low-quality thermal paper may contain BPA, a widely used chemical substance.

Harm: BPA is considered to have endocrine disruption and potential carcinogenic risks. Long term exposure may have an impact on the development and function of the human nervous system, such as causing problems such as lack of concentration, abnormal behavior, and cognitive decline.

3. Other harmful substances

In addition to VOCs and BPA, other harmful substances may also be produced during the production of three proof thermal paper, and the specific types and degrees of harm of these substances depend on the production process and the raw materials used.


Environmental protection measures and certification

In order to reduce the harm to the environment and human health, high-quality three proof thermal paper is usually certified for environmental protection, such as ROHS, REACH, etc. These certifications can ensure that thermal paper does not contain harmful substances during the production process and meets environmental requirements. In addition, a series of environmental protection measures can be taken during the production process, such as using environmentally friendly raw materials, improving production processes, and strengthening wastewater and exhaust gas treatment, to reduce the generation and emission of harmful substances.


In summary, the production of three proof thermal paper may indeed produce harmful chemicals, but through environmental certification and environmental measures, the production and emission of these substances can be effectively reduced, thereby protecting the environment and human health. Therefore, when choosing three proof thermal paper, it is recommended to prioritize products that have passed environmental certification.
