How Can Release Paper Ensure Quality in High Temperature Processes?
In modern manufacturing and packaging industries, high temperature release paper has increasingly become a critical material in synthetic leather, composite materials, and high-end packaging applications.
Material Properties and Classification
High-temperature release paper is a functional paper designed for high-temperature processing. Its main purpose is to prevent adhesion, ensure smooth demolding, and maintain surface quality and processing efficiency. Based on surface treatment and application, high-temperature release paper can be classified into various types. Among them, matte high temperature release paper is widely used in synthetic leather and hot-pressing processes due to its low gloss, high temperature resistance, and excellent release performance.
Key performance characteristics include:
- Heat resistance: Maintains stable properties under continuous exposure to 180–250°C or higher;
- Release performance: Prevents adhesion to substrates or coatings during processing, reducing scrap rates;
- Dimensional stability: Low deformation under heat, ensuring product precision;
- Environmental friendliness: Often produced using solvent-free coating processes, meeting modern green manufacturing requirements.
