What international standards do BOPP thermal sensitive synthetic paper products need to comply with?

The international standards that BOPP thermal sensitive synthetic paper products need to comply with may include the following aspects:

1、 Thermal paper related standards

According to the information released by Baidu Baike, a Chinese national standard "Thermal Paper" (GB/T 28210-2024) that will be implemented from April 1, 2025, provides detailed regulations on the quality and technical requirements of thermal paper. Although this standard mainly targets thermal paper, BOPP thermal synthetic paper, as a type of thermal paper, should also comply with the relevant provisions of this standard. These regulations may include requirements for the physical properties of paper (such as weight, thickness, tensile strength, tear resistance, etc.), chemical properties (such as water resistance, oil resistance, acid and alkali resistance, etc.), printing performance (such as color rendering, clarity, preservation, etc.), and environmental performance.

2、 BOPP film related standards

Due to the fact that BOPP thermosensitive synthetic paper is based on BOPP film, it also needs to comply with the relevant standards for BOPP film. These standards may include GB/T 10003-2008 "General purpose biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP) films", which provide detailed specifications for the appearance, dimensional deviations, physical and mechanical properties (such as tensile strength, elongation at break, tear strength, etc.), heat resistance, cold resistance, oil resistance, and chemical resistance of BOPP films.

3、 Environmental and safety standards

With the increasing awareness of environmental protection, BOPP thermal sensitive synthetic paper products still need to comply with relevant environmental and safety standards. For example, it is necessary to ensure that the product does not pose a threat to human health during use, and that it can also be effectively recycled and disposed of after disposal. In addition, some countries and regions may have imposed restrictions and monitoring on the use of harmful substances such as bisphenol A in thermal paper, so BOPP thermal synthetic paper products also need to comply with these restrictions and regulations.

4、 Standards in specific application scenarios

BOPP thermal sensitive synthetic paper products may also need to comply with corresponding standards based on their specific application scenarios. For example, in applications such as electronic waybills for express delivery, it may be necessary to comply with relevant standards such as YZ/T 0148-2015 "Electronic Waybills for Express Delivery". These standards may have specific requirements for the wear resistance, waterproofing, tear resistance, and other properties of paper.

In summary, BOPP thermal sensitive synthetic paper products need to comply with various standards related to thermal paper, BOPP film, environmental protection and safety, as well as standards for specific application scenarios. In order to ensure product quality and compliance with relevant standards, production enterprises need to strictly control the quality of raw materials, production processes, and product quality testing during the production process. At the same time, users also need to pay attention to the quality of BOPP thermal synthetic paper products and whether they meet the requirements of relevant standards when purchasing and using them.
