Metallic Polyester Film Features:

Material properties

Metallic Polyester Film is made of PET, which has excellent mechanical properties and chemical stability. Its tensile strength can reach 60-70 MPa, which is 2-3 times higher than ordinary plastic film, and can withstand large tension and pressure without breaking. At the same time, the elastic modulus of PET material is 2000-3000 MPa, which makes it have good flexibility and resilience, and it is not easy to have permanent deformation during use. These characteristics enable Metallic Polyester Film to maintain good performance and appearance in various application scenarios.

Diversity of thickness selection

The film provides a variety of common thickness specifications, including 12μm, 23μm, 36μm, 50μm, etc., to meet the needs of different customers. Films of different thicknesses vary in light transmittance, strength and flexibility. For example, a 12μm thick film has a high light transmittance (about 85% - 90%), which is suitable for decorative scenes that require a certain amount of light to pass through but want to maintain privacy; while a 50μm thick film has stronger mechanical strength and barrier properties, which is suitable for industrial applications with high protection requirements. This diverse thickness selection provides users with more flexibility and customization possibilities.

Customized size service

Metallic Polyester Film supports customized width and length according to customer needs, which can perfectly adapt to various decorative and industrial uses.

User feedback shows that about 80% of customers are very satisfied with the product's adaptation and decorative effects after using the customized size service, which greatly improves the completion quality and aesthetics of the project.

Fine surface treatment

The film has undergone a special surface treatment process to present a delicate metallic texture and luster. This surface treatment not only enhances the decorativeness of the film, but also improves its wear resistance and corrosion resistance. Experimental data show that the wear resistance of the surface-treated Metallic Polyester Film is 3-5 times higher than that of the untreated ordinary PET film, and the surface hardness reaches 3H (pencil hardness standard), which can effectively resist scratches and wear in daily use. At the same time, its corrosion resistance has also been significantly improved. After 72 hours of salt spray test, there is no obvious corrosion on the surface, ensuring the stability of the appearance and performance of the film in long-term use.

Excellent temperature resistance

Metallic Polyester Film has excellent temperature resistance and can maintain stable performance over a wide temperature range. Its long-term use temperature range is -70℃ to 120℃, and it can withstand temperatures up to 150℃ for a short time. Under extreme temperature conditions, the physical properties and chemical properties of the film will not change significantly. For example, in a high temperature environment, the film will not soften, deform or release harmful substances; in a low temperature environment, it will not become brittle or crack. This excellent temperature resistance makes it suitable for various complex environmental conditions, and it can maintain good use conditions whether in the cold northern region or the hot southern region.

Highly efficient moisture and gas barrier

The film has extremely strong moisture and gas barrier properties, which can effectively prevent the penetration of water vapor, oxygen and other gases. Its water vapor permeability is only 0.05 - 0.1 g/m²・24h, and its oxygen permeability is 0.01 - 0.02 cm³/m²・24h・atm, which is much lower than ordinary plastic films. This feature makes it have a wide range of application prospects in the field of packaging and protection, which can effectively extend the shelf life of products and protect sensitive materials from environmental factors. For example, the use of Metallic Polyester Film in food packaging can significantly reduce the contact of food with oxygen and water vapor, prevent food from deterioration and oxidation, and extend the shelf life of food.

Rich color selection

Metallic Polyester Film provides a variety of color options to meet the personalized needs of different users. Common colors include silver, gold, chrome, etc. Each color is carefully blended to ensure that the color is pure, uniform and has a good metallic texture. In addition, colors can be customized according to customers' special requirements. Color stability is also a major feature. After 500 hours of xenon lamp aging test, the color change ΔE value is less than 2, which is much lower than the industry standard ΔE less than 5, ensuring that the color of the film will always be as new during long-term use without fading or discoloration.

Environmental protection and sustainability

PET material has good recyclability. Metallic Polyester Film can be recycled and reused after its service life, which meets the requirements of environmental protection and sustainable development.

Daily cleaning

In daily use, the surface of Metallic Polyester Film should be wiped gently with a soft dry or slightly damp cloth regularly to remove dust, fingerprints and stains. Avoid using rough cleaning tools or cleaning agents containing abrasives to avoid scratching the surface of the film. For stubborn stains, you can use a special plastic film cleaner, dilute it according to the product instructions, wipe it, then rinse it with clean water and wipe it dry. According to experimental data, the surface gloss and color saturation of a properly cleaned film can be maintained at more than 90%, while the surface gloss of a film that is not cleaned or uses improper cleaning methods will decrease by 30% - 50%, and the color will become dull. For example, in an office environment, cleaning the walls and furniture decorated with film once a week can ensure that they maintain a good appearance and decorative effect for a long time.

Avoid contact with sharp objects

Try to avoid contact between the film and sharp objects, such as nails, needles, knives, etc. If you need to write or install other items on the surface of the film, you should use a special writing tool or adopt a traceless installation method. Experiments show that the depth of scratches caused by sharp objects on the surface of the film is proportional to the force applied. For example, applying a force of 10N on the surface of the film with a pencil tip will leave obvious scratches on the surface, seriously affecting the aesthetics and protective performance of the film. Therefore, in daily use, special attention should be paid to avoid contact between sharp objects and the film. If scratches appear, professional repair tools and materials can be used to repair them to restore the surface integrity of the film.

Controlling ambient temperature and humidity

In order to extend the service life of Metallic Polyester Film and maintain its stable performance, the temperature and humidity of its use and storage environment should be controlled within a suitable range. The ideal ambient temperature is 15-30℃ and the relative humidity is 40%-60%. Too high or too low temperature and too humid or dry environment may have adverse effects on the film. For example, in a high temperature and high humidity environment, the film may absorb moisture, resulting in water spots on the surface or performance degradation; in a low temperature environment, the film may become brittle and prone to cracks. By using air conditioners, dehumidifiers or humidifiers to adjust the ambient temperature and humidity, these problems can be effectively avoided and the film can always be kept in good condition.

Check the film status regularly

Metallic Polyester Film should be thoroughly inspected at regular intervals to observe whether there are scratches, wear, fading or other signs of damage on its surface. At the same time, check whether the bonding between the film and the substrate is firm and whether there are bubbling, degumming and other phenomena. If problems are found, timely measures should be taken to repair or replace them. Regular inspections can help to detect potential problems in time, prevent problems from expanding, and extend the service life of the film. For example, in commercial space decoration, a monthly film status inspection can ensure the continued good decorative effect, and can also promptly detect and solve possible safety hazards, providing users with a safe and beautiful environment.

Avoid chemical erosion

When using and storing Metallic Polyester Film, avoid long-term contact with chemicals, such as acids, alkalis, oils, organic solvents, etc. If these chemicals are accidentally exposed, they should be immediately rinsed with plenty of water and wiped dry with a clean cloth. Experimental data show that after the film is immersed in acetone for 10 minutes, the surface will show obvious dissolution, resulting in the degradation of film performance and damage to appearance. Therefore, during use, care should be taken to avoid contact with such chemicals, especially in industrial environments or laboratories, and protective measures should be strengthened to ensure the safe use of the film.

Professional maintenance and repair
