Common Storage Precautions for Self-Adhesive Materials
The rainy season is characterized by high humidity, making moisture control crucial when using self-adhesive materials. Key precautions include:
Storage:
Keep the original packaging intact until the materials are ready for use.
If self-adhesive materials are temporarily unused after opening or need to be returned to storage, they should be promptly repackaged to prevent moisture absorption.
Dehumidification measures should be implemented in storage and processing areas.
Semi-finished and finished products should be promptly packaged, with particular attention to sealing and moisture-proofing.
Label Application:
Common issues during label application in rainy seasons include label lifting, peeling, and bubbling, especially on corrugated cartons.
Avoid opening the packaging of labels before application to prevent moisture-related deformation.
Ensure that the surfaces to be labeled, such as cartons, are kept dry to avoid warping, wrinkling, or bubbling.
Newly made corrugated cartons should be allowed to acclimate to the environment’s humidity before labeling.
Align the grain direction of the labels with that of the corrugated cartons to minimize the risk of wrinkling or lifting after application.
Apply adequate pressure during labeling, especially at the edges, to ensure proper adhesion.
After labeling, store the labeled products in a low-humidity, enclosed space until the adhesive sets before moving them to outdoor storage or transportation.
