How is the waterproof and moisture-proof performance of the Edging Clamshell Paper Box achieved?

2024-07-23

The Edging Clamshell Paper Box is a well-designed and powerful packaging solution. The realization of its waterproof and moisture-proof performance is the result of the combined action of multiple factors and technical means. Surface coating technology forms a waterproof barrier by coating one or more layers of special materials on the outside of the carton. These materials include but are not limited to wax coatings, water-based polyurethane, polyvinyl alcohol, etc. These coatings can not only effectively isolate moisture and moisture, but also resist the penetration of stains and grease to a certain extent, protecting the neat appearance of the carton. The selection and thickness of the coating should be determined according to the specific application scenario and the waterproof grade requirements. For example, for products that need to be exposed to humid environments for a long time, coating materials with higher water resistance and weather resistance can be selected.
Lamination composite technology forms a composite cardboard with excellent moisture-proof performance by composite processing of moisture-proof materials (such as aluminum foil, PET film, PE film, etc.) with paperboard. This composite structure can make full use of the advantages of each layer of material to achieve multiple functions such as waterproof, moisture-proof, and tear-resistant. Lamination composite technology not only improves the moisture-proof performance of the carton, but also enhances its overall strength and rigidity. This enables the carton to better resist external impact and extrusion during transportation and storage, and protect the internal items from damage.
Using the special properties of nanomaterials, an extremely thin and dense waterproof layer is formed on the surface of the carton. This nano coating has super strong waterproof performance and can effectively prevent the penetration of water molecules. At the same time, the nano coating also has good air permeability and environmental protection, and will not cause harm to the environment and human health. With the continuous development of nanotechnology, the application prospects of nano coatings in the packaging industry will become more and more broad.
In the papermaking stage, by adjusting the papermaking process and formula, the base paper itself has good waterproof performance. This method fundamentally solves the waterproof problem of the carton, making the subsequent processing process simpler and more efficient. After the carton is made, a waterproof layer is formed on the surface or inside of the carton by chemical treatment (such as impregnation, spraying, etc.) or physical modification (such as hot pressing, irradiation, etc.). This method is highly flexible and can be customized according to specific needs.
Sealing design is an important link to ensure the waterproof and moisture-proof performance of the carton. By optimizing the design of the flap and the edge, ensure that they can fit tightly and reduce the gaps for water and moisture to enter. At the same time, it is also possible to consider setting auxiliary materials such as sealing strips or sealants on the inside or edge of the flap to further enhance the sealing effect. In industries such as business gifts, electronic products, and food, sealing design is of great significance for protecting internal items from the influence of the external environment. Therefore, when designing and making edge-wrapped flip-cover paper boxes, the demand for sealing should be fully considered to ensure that the paper boxes can fully exert their waterproof and moisture-proof functions.
The waterproof and moisture-proof performance of the edge-wrapped flip-cover paper boxes is achieved through a variety of technical means and process measures. These measures not only improve the practicality and durability of the paper boxes, but also meet the packaging performance requirements of different industries and scenarios. With the continuous advancement and innovation of technology, we can expect more edge-wrapped flip-cover paper boxes with higher waterproof and moisture-proof performance to come out, bringing more convenience and protection to our lives and work.
