In the battery manufacturing and packaging industry, a battery label is much more than just a brand logo—it contains essential safety information, specifications, and warnings. Many manufacturers often reach out to us with questions like, "How do I fix battery label ink peeling?" or "Why is the text on my battery tags blurring during assembly?" If the printing quality is inadequate, it not only detracts from the product's aesthetics but can also lead to violations of industry safety standards.
Why Do Your Battery Labels Peel Off?
Battery labels are typically constructed from PET, PP, or specialized synthetic materials. These substrates frequently exhibit low surface energy, making it challenging for standard inks to adhere properly. Additionally, batteries produce heat during charging and discharging, and they face friction and pressure during logistics. If the ink lacks sufficient adhesion and flexibility, it is likely to crack, chip, or peel.
UV-DCB Ink: The Solution Designed for Batteries
As a leading supplier of screen printing ink, we developed the UV-DCB ink series specifically to tackle these issues. This series is formulated for high-standard battery labeling and aims to eliminate unstable printing layers once and for all.
Superior Adhesion, Zero Peeling: UV-DCB and its upgraded versions demonstrate excellent affinity for various polar substrates. Once printed, the ink bonds tightly with the material, easily passing cross-hatch adhesion tests and scratch resistance evaluations.
Optimized for LED Curing Technology: The UV-LED-DCB series is tailored for modern LED curing systems. Compared to traditional mercury lamps, it significantly reduces energy consumption and minimizes thermal deformation, ensuring that thin film battery labels remain perfectly flat.
Chemical & Corrosion Resistance: The CHK series provides outstanding resistance to battery electrolytes and various chemicals. It guarantees that patterns and text stay sharp and vibrant, even after exposure to harsh chemical environments.
Vibrant Colors & High Opacity: Whether it’s white text on a black background or bright brand colors, this series ensures excellent color reproduction, greatly enhancing the premium feel of your product.
Expert Tips: How to Improve Battery Label Printing Quality?
Match the Light Source: If your production line utilizes LED curing, make sure to use UV-LED-DCB to achieve the highest triggering efficiency and bonding strength.
Surface Pre-treatment: For extremely challenging new energy battery films, we recommend Corona treatment to optimize the ink’s performance.
Mesh Count Selection: Choose the appropriate mesh count based on the fineness of the text to guarantee optimal ink flow and clarity.
If you are facing issues with ink peeling, blurred text, or incomplete curing on your battery labels, consider our UV-DCB ink series. With over 1,000 ink formulations available, we offer one-on-one technical support tailored to your specific substrates, helping your battery tags achieve excellence in every detail.
