What is Printed Film?

To understand what is a printed film, one must first know what is a film? A film is a synthetic resin adhesive, with or without a film carrier fabric, usually of the thermosetting type, in the form of a thin film of resin, used under heat and pressure as an interleaf in the production of bonded structures.

Printed film used for packing, is a film with a display of printing, lithographing, embossing, stickers, seals, or other written, printed or graphic matter. These are leak proof packaging films. Any film like PVC film, heat shrink films etc can be converted into printed films.

Specification of Printed Packaging Films

Packaging products require a specific range of coefficient of friction (COF) to allow automatic packaging operations to run unhindered and to prevent the package from sliding during storage.

When an ink or coating is applied to a film, the COF of the printed film usually is higher than the film itself. The printed film COF will drop over time as the slip agents distribute themselves within the film and ink layer. If the printed film has retained solvent, this will cause a higher COF. As the ink dries, the COF will drop. The presence of retained solvent also can increase the migration of slip agents.

The consumption of printing films is growing for stretch and heat shrink sleeve labels, which make attractive and low-cost-temper evident seals.
