What is the resistance of In Mold Label for Households to oil?

Hey there! As a supplier of In Mold Label for Households, I've been getting a lot of questions lately about the resistance of these labels to oil. So, I thought I'd write this blog to share some insights and experiences I've gathered over the years.

First off, let's talk about what In Mold Label for Households is. These labels are a type of labeling solution that is applied directly during the molding process of household products. They offer a seamless and durable finish, which is great for products like In Moud Label for Buckets, In Mold Label for Households, and In Mould Label for Oil Pot. The in-mold labeling process involves placing a pre-printed label inside the mold before the plastic is injected. As the plastic takes the shape of the mold, it bonds with the label, creating a permanent and high-quality decoration.

Now, when it comes to oil resistance, it's a crucial factor, especially for household products that come into contact with oils on a regular basis. Think about oil pots, for example. The label on an oil pot needs to withstand the constant exposure to oil without fading, peeling, or losing its adhesion.

The resistance of In Mold Label for Households to oil depends on several factors. One of the key factors is the type of material used for the label. Most in-mold labels are made from materials like polypropylene (PP), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), or oriented polypropylene (OPP). These materials have different levels of oil resistance.

PP labels are known for their good chemical resistance, including resistance to oils. They can withstand a certain amount of oil exposure without significant damage. However, if the oil is highly acidic or contains certain solvents, over time, it might start to affect the label's appearance.

PET labels, on the other hand, offer excellent dimensional stability and good resistance to a wide range of chemicals, including oils. They are more likely to maintain their integrity and appearance even when in contact with oil for extended periods.

OPP labels are also popular due to their high gloss and printability. They have a decent level of oil resistance, but similar to PP labels, they might be affected by certain types of oils or long-term exposure.

Another important factor is the printing ink used on the label. High-quality, oil-resistant inks are essential for ensuring that the label doesn't fade or smudge when it comes into contact with oil. When we produce In Mold Label for Households, we always make sure to use inks that are specifically formulated to resist oil and other chemicals.

We've conducted a number of tests to evaluate the oil resistance of our labels. In one test, we placed samples of our In Mould Label for Oil Pot in different types of oils for various periods of time. We monitored the labels for any signs of degradation, such as changes in color, adhesion loss, or surface damage.

The results were quite promising. Our labels made from PET material with oil-resistant inks showed minimal signs of wear and tear even after being submerged in oil for several weeks. The labels maintained their print quality and adhesion, which is a great sign for their long-term performance in real-world applications.

However, it's important to note that the oil resistance of the label also depends on the conditions of use. For example, if the household product is exposed to high temperatures along with oil, it can accelerate the degradation process. Similarly, if the oil is contaminated with other substances or has a high viscosity, it might have a greater impact on the label.

So, if you're a manufacturer of household products that come into contact with oil, it's crucial to choose the right In Mold Label for Households. Consider the type of oil your product will be exposed to, the expected duration of exposure, and the environmental conditions.

As a supplier, we're always here to help you make the best choice. We can provide you with samples of our labels so you can conduct your own tests and see the oil resistance for yourself. We also offer customization options, so we can tailor the label to meet your specific requirements.
