Velvet Touch Thermal Matte Film (BOPP Based)
PCT-2(DL) VT-MAT
Description
It is BOPP based, one side velvet feel matte coated and other side extrusion
coated, both sides treated thermal laminating film. Film has extrusion coated
surface with low temp. melting resin, which enables the lamination of film to
paper products by heat and pressure.
Features
- Velvet feel
- Natural look lamination
- Good hot stamping & UV lacquer adhesion
- Fibre-tear bond strength with paper
- Improved scuff resistance
Applications
- Thermal lamination with all kinds of printed, unprinted paper and paper boards like book covers, posters, magazines, diaries etc.This film is specifically recommended for premium laminating of user’s manuals, novels, magazines, brochures etc.
Special Instruction
- Cosmo BOPP based velvet touch thermal matte film can be laminated with the temperature range of 100 to 120 deg C. It is recommended,around 10 to 20 deg C higher lamination temperature than standard matte film due to higher thermal resistance of velvet surface .
- Similarly the lamination speed should be reduced by 30 to 40 % relative to standard matte film.
- Please make sure that the printed surface is well dried before lamination.
- Strongly recommend to handle with care and cleanliness as it may spoil it’s look by rough handling, dust contamination and scratches.
- It is advisable to cool sufficiently one surface before proceeding the lamination to other surface.
- It is recommended to do the post lamination operation after 24 hrs.
