Description

<p>The thermal paper, which is imaged and printed by heat, has been launched for over 40 years. The application at the dawning of the thermal paper was for facsimiles, and then the receipt of stores was developed. The applications of the thermal paper have been extended to various areas, such as transportation and logistics labels, food packing and weighing labels, tickets and the imaging media for medical.</p><p>The quality at the dawning of the thermal paper was not so good. The dynamic sensitivity was low and the printed image faded out little by little. The dynamic sensitivity was improved with various technologies. As one of the examples, an undercoat layer was applied between base paper and thermal layer to improve insulation. The image fading also was improved with thermal formulas, which applied new developers and various kinds of chemicals as additives.</p><p>This article describes the development and the changing applications of the thermal paper, and introduces the latest technology of the thermal paper.</p>
