Wax based carbon ribbon is mainly suitable for the following paper materials due to its unique composition and printing characteristics:
1、 Main applicable materials
Copperplate paper: Wax based carbon ribbon has excellent printing effect on copperplate paper, presenting clear and delicate printing effects. Copperplate paper has a smooth surface and good ink absorption, forming a good match with the coating material of wax based carbon ribbon.
Ordinary paper: Wax based carbon ribbon is also suitable for printing on ordinary paper, such as office paper, writing paper, etc. On these papers, wax based carbon tape can provide good printing quality and adhesion.
Hanging tags: Clothing tags, product tags, etc. are also the main application areas of wax based carbon strips. Wax based carbon ribbons can maintain good printing performance and durability on these materials.
Synthetic paper: Synthetic paper is a material that has the appearance and feel of paper, but has plastic properties. The printing effect of wax based carbon ribbon on synthetic paper is also relatively ideal.
2、 Other applicable materials
In addition to the main applicable materials mentioned above, wax based carbon ribbon can also be used for printing on the following materials:
Polishing paper: The surface of the polishing paper has been treated to have a certain glossiness and hardness. The printing effect of wax based carbon ribbon on glossy paper is stable and can meet basic printing needs.
Smooth paper: Smooth paper has a smooth surface and good ink absorption, suitable for printing wax based carbon ribbons.
Kraft paper: Kraft paper is commonly used for packaging and label making. The printing effect of wax based carbon tape on kraft paper is good and can meet basic labeling needs.
3、 Not applicable material
Although wax based carbon tape can perform well on various paper materials, there are also some materials that are not suitable for printing with wax based carbon tape:
PET material: PET (polyethylene terephthalate) is a commonly used plastic material with a smooth surface and high hardness. Due to the soft coating material of wax based carbon tape and poor adhesion with PET material, it is not suitable to use wax based carbon tape for printing on PET material.
Other materials with smooth surfaces: In addition to PET material, other materials with smooth surfaces (such as PVC, nylon, etc.) are also not suitable for printing with wax based carbon tape. These materials have a high surface hardness and are difficult to form a strong bond with the coating material of wax based carbon ribbon.
In summary, wax based carbon ribbon is mainly suitable for various paper materials such as copperplate paper, regular paper, hang tags, synthetic paper, etc., and can meet basic printing and labeling needs. When selecting carbon ribbon, the appropriate type should be chosen based on the specific printing material and printing requirements.
