Translucent 60μm Cast Polypropylene Film For Pharmaceutical Packaging
60 μm natural color cast polypropylene film for food, medical and industrial packaging applications.
Applications
- Food Packaging: Ideal for baked goods, snacks, and confectionery with excellent barrier properties and clear visibility.
- Industrial Packaging: Provides protection from dust, moisture, and environmental factors for hardware, tools, and small parts.
- Stationery and Gift Packaging: Used for wrapping paper, portfolio covers, and office supplies with attractive translucent appearance.
- Medical and Pharmaceutical Packaging: Protects medical devices, surgical instruments, and sensitive equipment from moisture and tampering.
- Labeling: Suitable for overprinting customized designs and clear sticker applications.
- Lamination: Serves as bonding layer with paper, aluminum foil, or other films for enhanced strength and barrier properties.
Key Features
Cast polypropylene film offers excellent transparency, high gloss, and superior moisture barrier properties, making it ideal for packaging applications where product visibility is essential.
- High durability, flexibility, and excellent sealing properties
- Superior resistance to punctures, tearing, and abrasion
- Good stiffness and dimensional stability
- Excellent printability with great graphic clarity
- Ideal for heat sealing applications
Manufacturing Process
- Polymerization: Propylene monomers are polymerized under pressure and high temperature to produce polypropylene resin pellets.
- Extrusion: Polypropylene resin pellets are melted and extruded through a flat die to form a continuous sheet.
- Orientation: The extruded sheet is stretched across machine and transverse directions to improve mechanical properties and clarity.
- Cooling: Film is cooled using a cooling roll and stored on a take-up roll.
- Finishing: Surface treatments like corona discharge are applied to improve printing quality and adhesion.
Advantages Over BOPP Film
- Improved Sealing Properties: Higher seal strength ideal for food packaging applications.
- Enhanced Clarity: Better clarity and gloss for superior product visibility.
- Better Hot Tack Properties: Suitable for high-speed packaging machines requiring quick sealing.
- Increased Heat Resistance: Better suited for hot-fill and retort packaging applications.
- Higher Puncture Resistance: More durable and resistant to damage during transportation and storage.
