Application and use

HERMA PP Inkjet white matt is particularly developed for inkjet printing and combines a high print quality with the durability of films.

With HERMA PP Inkjet white matt an outstanding print quality and fast ink drying can be achieved with most water based inks (dye or pigment). Furthermore it can be printed perfectly in the traditional label printing methods.

The film features good water resistance, good die cutting capability, good tear resistance, high dimensional stability and has a good legibility due to its matt surface.

Adhesive 42X is used where good release of the label at high initial adhesion is required. The low final tack of the adhesive provides good release on a variety of surfaces. The combination of resistance to various media, low final tack and high cohesion predestines the 42X pressure sensitive adhesive for resealable labels. Multiple opening and reclosing works very well on all common plastic surfaces.

42X shows good resistance to water, oils and other liquids. Furthermore, the adhesive has a particularly good resistance to light, moisture and ageing.

The supercalendered glassine is perfectly suited for assignment in labelling machines equipped with optical or mechanical scanners.

Processing

Excellent die-cutting characteristics on all customary machines. As part of a self-adhesive compound HERMA PW (517) offers excellent die-cutting characteristics with all customary flatbed and rotary die-cutting tools.

Storage conditions

Storing at a temperature of 20 ± 5 °C, a relative humidity of 45 ± 5 % and a dark storage is recommended. Moisture, heat and direct sunlight have to be avoided.

The shelf life is two years from date of production.

Regulations concerning contact with food

The pressure-sensitive adhesive 42X can be safely used for the back coating of labels for the labelling of foodstuffs for storage at room temperature and below. It may be used in direct contact with dry, moist and fatty foodstuffs that can be assigned a correction factor of at least 2 in accordance with Regulation (EU) No. 10/2011.
