Product Characteristics
- Uniform Surface Smoothness: Provides a consistent, low-surface-energy plane that facilitates clean and complete release of adhesives and resins.
- High Light Transmittance: The transparent nature allows for visual inspection and alignment during lamination and die-cutting processes.
- Dimensional Stability: Exhibits minimal thermal expansion and contraction, ensuring registration accuracy in multi-step manufacturing.
- Chemical Resistance: Maintains integrity when exposed to a range of solvents and chemicals used in printing and coating operations.
Product Description
This smooth transparent PET release film is engineered to function as a stable and reliable carrier or protective interface in industrial composite and adhesive applications. Its primary technical principle relies on a controlled release coating applied to a polyethylene terephthalate substrate, which creates a predictable and non-transferring separation boundary. This design addresses the requirement for a durable carrier material in processes such as flexible circuit fabrication, membrane switch assembly, and the production of insulating materials.
The manufacturing process adheres to standardized protocols, and the product is produced in facilities that have successfully passed IS09001 international standard certification and safety production standardization acceptance. The technical advantage lies in the film's consistent performance, which contributes to reduced waste and improved process yield in precision die-cutting and lamination.
