Exploration of the potential of PET copper plated film as a conductive or anti-counterfeiting label in the packaging industry

With the increasing demand for functional materials in the packaging industry,PET copper plated filmAs a material with excellent conductivity and good mechanical properties, it has gradually attracted people's attention. Especially in the fields of conductive labels and anti-counterfeiting labels, PET copper plated film demonstrates its unique potential. This article aims to explore the application prospects of PET copper plated film in the packaging industry, and demonstrate its advantages as a conductive or anti-counterfeiting label through experimental data.

Overview of PET Copper Plating Film

PET copper plated film is made ofPolyester (PET) filmThe substrate is formed by depositing a layer of copper foil on its surface through physical or chemical methods. This material not only has the characteristics of lightweight, transparency, and wear resistance of PET film, but also is endowed with conductivity due to the presence of copper layer, making it a multifunctional composite material.

Application cases of conductive labels

In terms of conductive labels, PET copper plated film can be used forElectromagnetic ShieldingElectrostatic discharge (ESD) protection, etc. By designing specific patterns or circuits on PET copper plated film, conductive labels can be made and applied to electronic product packaging to prevent internal components from being damaged by external electromagnetic interference or static electricity.

experimental data

In order to verify the effectiveness of PET copper plated film as a conductive label, Advanced Institute (Shenzhen) Technology Co., Ltd. conducted a series of tests. The experimental results show that under the same conditions, the shielding effectiveness of PET copper plated film reaches over 30dB, far higher than that of ordinary plastic film. The specific data is as follows:

• Control group (ordinary plastic film): shielding effectiveness<10dB
• Experimental group (PET copper plated film): shielding effectiveness>30dB

This means that PET copper plated film has significant advantages in preventing electromagnetic interference.

Application cases of anti-counterfeiting labels

Anti counterfeiting labels are another important application area in the packaging industry. PET copper plated film, due to its unique metallic luster and difficult to replicate characteristics, can be used as the basic material for anti-counterfeiting labels. By printing special patterns or codes on the copper layer, the anti-counterfeiting function of the product can be achieved.

experimental data

To verify the feasibility of using PET copper plated film as an anti-counterfeiting label,Advanced Institute (Shenzhen) Technology Co., LtdIt was tested for wear resistance and printing adaptability. The results showed that after 100 friction tests, the pattern of PET copper plated film remained clear and visible, indicating its good wear resistance. In addition, PET copper plated film has good adhesion to various inks and is suitable for fine printing.

• Wear resistance test: Pattern clarity>90% after 100 rubs
• Printing adaptability test: Ink adhesion>Level 4 (according to ISO standards)

Comparative analysis of data

From the above experimental data, it can be seen that compared to traditional non-metallic thin film materials,PET copper plated filmIt has significant advantages in conductivity and anti-counterfeiting function. Whether used to prevent electromagnetic interference or as an anti-counterfeiting label, PET copper plated film performs excellently.

conclusion

In summary, PET copper plated film has great potential as a conductive or anti-counterfeiting label in the packaging industry due to its unique conductivity and good mechanical properties. Through reasonable process design and surface treatment, PET copper plated film can not only improve the functionality of products, but also enhance their safety and anti-counterfeiting capabilities. In the future, with the advancement of technology and the growth of market demand, PET copper plated film is expected to be widely used in the packaging industry.
