What is the heat resistance of translucent imaging film (TIF)? TIF is designed to handle the quick heat exposure in a toner-based plain-paper copier/laser printer. Its coatings are designed to be used in environments up to 85C/185F. At higher temperatures, the printable surface could yellow, or lose some of its toner adhesion properties. When TIF … Read more
What is the heat resistance of our surface protection film? These films are designed for use in environments below 65C/140F. At higher temperatures, the adhesive becomes soft and loses adhesion. At really high temperatures (above 140C), the film begins to lose its orientation, becoming wavy and soft. If you need a matte film for higher … Read more
What is the heat resistance of Shrink-Art Films? Well, it’s fairly low, compared with other films like our DuraLar™ films. It’s even a little less heat resistant than our ClearLay™ Rigid PVC and our acetate film. But that’s a good thing! The whole point of Shrink-Art film is to bake it in an oven and … Read more
What is the heat resistance of our pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) DuraLar™ films? PSA DuraLar is designed for use in environments below 65C/140F. At higher temperatures, the adhesive becomes soft and loses adhesion. At really high temperatures (above 150C), it begins to lose its orientation; it will become wavy and shrink. If you need a … Read more
What is the heat resistance of Laser-printable (PPC/Laser) film? PPC/Laser Ffilm is designed to handle the quick high heat exposure in toner-based plain-paper copiers and laser printers. Its coatings are designed to be used in environments up to 85C/185F. At higher temperatures, the printable surface could yellow, or lose some of its toner adhesion properties. … Read more
What is the heat resistance of polyseam? Polyseam will begin to soften at about 150C/300F. When polyseam softens, it begins to lose its orientation; it will become wavy and shrink..
What is the heat resistance of polypropylene sheets (PP)? Polypropylene starts to soften at 70C/1580F. The film will soften very evenly, which makes HDPE ideal for thermoforming, bending, and heat sealing applications.
What is the heat resistance of Metallized DuraLar™ film and sheets? Metallized DuraLar will begin to soften at about 150C/300F. When Metallized DuraLar softens, it begins to lose its orientation; the metal coating will crack, and the film gets wavy and begins to shrink. So if your film will only be exposed to a heat … Read more
What is the heat resistance of LaserPro™ laser cuttable films? LaserPro films will begin to soften at about 150C/300F. When this films soften, it begin to lose its orientation; get wavy and begin to shrink. So if your film will only be exposed to a heat environment below 150C/300F, LaserPro is a good choice.
