Product type
BOPP films, or Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene films, are a type of plastic film made from polypropylene that has been stretched in both the machine and transverse directions. This process enhances the film's strength, clarity, and barrier properties, making it suitable for a variety of applications. BOPP films are widely used in the packaging industry due to their excellent moisture resistance, durability, and ability to be printed on, making them ideal for packaging food, consumer goods, and industrial products.
| Thickness range | 15 to 50 microns |
| Width range | 100 to 2000 mm |
| Tensile strength | 50 to 150 MPa |
| Elongation at break | 100 to 600% |
| Transparency | Up to 90% light transmission |
| Temperature resistance | -20 to 100 degrees Celsius |
When selecting BOPP films, buyers should consider the thickness and width based on their specific packaging needs. It is also important to specify the required tensile strength and elongation properties for the intended application. Certifications for food safety and compliance with industry standards may be necessary, especially for food and pharmaceutical packaging. Quantities should be discussed to ensure optimal pricing and supply chain efficiency.
