What is the material of the soft touch canister?

Soft touch canister refers to a small packaging container made of plastic or plastic-based raw materials, usually with a sealable lid. In the soft touch canister, there are almost no pure plastic cans. Most of them are made of plastic, paper, aluminum foil and other composite materials, while the bottom and lid are made of plastic or metal.

What is the main material of soft touch canister?

High-density polyethylene has good heat resistance and cold resistance, and is also the main material of soft touch canister. It has good chemical stability, high rigidity and toughness, and good mechanical strength.

 

[Basic characteristics] High-density polyethylene is an opaque white wax-like material with a specific gravity lighter than water and a specific gravity of 0.941~0.960. The soft touch canister is soft and tough, but slightly harder than LDPE, and slightly stretchable, non-toxic. Tasteless.

[Combustion characteristics] It is flammable and can continue to burn after leaving the fire. The upper end of the flame is yellow and the lower end is blue. It will melt when burning, with liquid dripping and no black smoke. At the same time, it emits the smell of paraffin wax.

[Main advantages] Acid and alkali resistance, organic solvent resistance, excellent electrical insulation, and still maintain a certain degree of toughness at low temperatures. Surface hardness, tensile strength, rigidity and other mechanical strength are higher than LDPE, close to PP, tougher than PP, but the surface finish is not as good as PP.

[Applications] soft touch canister is used for extruding packaging films, ropes, woven bags, fishing nets, water pipes; injection molding low-end daily necessities and shells, non-load-bearing components, plastic boxes, turnover boxes; extrusion blow molding containers, hollow products, bottles .

 

Introduction to the performance characteristics of the main materials of soft touch canister.

First of all, the main material of soft touch canister has good chemical stability. It is insoluble in any organic solvents at room temperature and is resistant to corrosion by acids, alkalis and various salts.

 

Secondly, the medical PET soft touch canister has good gas barrier properties. Among the commonly used plastic materials, the soft touch canister has the best barrier properties against water vapor and oxygen, which can fully meet the special storage requirements of pharmaceutical packaging. The soft touch canister has excellent chemical resistance and can be used for packaging all items except strong alkalis and some organic solvents.

 

Third, the recycling rate of soft touch canister is higher than that of other plastics. When it is burned as waste, it is flammable due to its low combustion calorific value and does not produce harmful gases.

 

Fourth, the food soft touch canister made of PET meets food hygiene requirements, because PET resin is not only a harmless resin, but also a pure resin without any additives. It has passed the equivalent of the United States, Europe and Japan. Strictly, you can consult Shanghai Gensyu Packaging Co., Ltd. Shanghai Gensyu Packaging Co., Ltd. specializes in the R&D, production and sales of plastic particles. Since its establishment, it has been continuously pursuing progress, pioneering and innovating, and has won praise from many partners!

 

Packaging, storage, transportation and recycling of the main materials of soft touch canister.

Store the soft touch canister away from fire and heat insulation. The warehouse should be kept dry and tidy. It is strictly forbidden to mix any impurities, sun and rain. The soft touch canister should be stored in a clean, dry, covered carriage or cabin without any sharp objects such as nails. Mixed transportation with flammable aromatic hydrocarbons, halogenated hydrocarbons and other organic solvents is strictly prohibited.

 

HDPE is the fastest growing part of the plastic material warehouse recycling market. This is mainly due to its easy reprocessing, minimal degradation characteristics and its large number of applications for packaging purposes. The main recycling of soft touch canister is to reprocess 25% of recycled materials, such as post-consumer recyclables (PCR), with pure HDPE to make soft touch canisters that do not come into contact with food.
