Single-sided PVDC-coated PET film: the guardian of extending product shelf life

Jun 24,2024

In modern life, the shelf life of food, medicines and cosmetics is of vital importance to consumers. A packaging material that can effectively extend the shelf life of products has undoubtedly become a hot demand in the market. Single-sided PVDC-coated PET film has become an ideal solution to this demand due to its excellent barrier properties.

PVDC (polyvinylidene chloride) is a high-performance polymer material known for its excellent barrier properties. When PVDC is coated on one side of a PET (polyethylene terephthalate) film, the resulting coating effectively blocks the penetration of oxygen, moisture and microorganisms. This unique barrier property makes single-sided PVDC-coated PET films play an important role in the packaging of food, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics.

Food, medicine and cosmetics are often susceptible to deterioration due to the influence of oxygen, moisture and microorganisms during storage and transportation. The barrier properties of single-sided PVDC-coated PET film can significantly reduce the impact of these adverse factors on the product, thereby extending the shelf life of the product.

For food, oxygen and moisture are the main factors leading to food oxidation, deterioration and microbial growth. Single-sided PVDC-coated PET film can effectively isolate the penetration of oxygen and moisture, allowing food to maintain freshness and taste during storage and transportation.

For medicines, their quality and safety are directly related to patients' health. Single-sided PVDC-coated PET film can prevent drugs from moisture, oxidation and deterioration, ensuring that drugs maintain stable efficacy and safety during their validity period.

For cosmetics, the evaporation of moisture and oil will cause the product to lose its original effect. Single-sided PVDC-coated PET film can reduce the evaporation of water and oil, maintaining the stability and durability of cosmetics.

Due to its excellent barrier properties and wide application prospects, single-sided PVDC-coated PET film has been widely used in the packaging of food, drugs and cosmetics. Whether it is vacuum packaging, heat sealing packaging or aseptic packaging, single-sided PVDC-coated PET film can provide excellent barrier effects to ensure that the product maintains its original quality and safety during storage and transportation.

Single-sided PVDC-coated PET film has become one of the important materials in the modern packaging industry with its unique barrier properties and wide application prospects. It can not only significantly extend the shelf life of food, drugs and cosmetics, but also improve the safety and environmental protection of packaging. In the future, with the continuous advancement of technology and consumers' pursuit of high-quality life, single-sided PVDC-coated PET film will show its unique charm and value in more fields.
