Is it possible to get polyimide labels or kapton labels in different colors, such as red, blue, etc.?
Yes. There are two ways to achieve “color matched” polyimide label material. The first, flood coating of the material on a flexo press, is easiest, but fraught with the risk of label failure when it is subsequently exposed to chemicals, abrasion, and the like.The printed image will be printed upon the “flood coated” layer of ink, which is the layer used to colorize the coated kapton label material. The adhesion of the print to the ink may not be optimal, nor the adhesion of the inked flood coating to the surface of the coated Kapton label material. The second approach, is to pigment or color match the coating used on the polyimide label material, as it is manufactured by Polyonics. This guarantees optimal performance of the printed image with the coated surface. For more information, contact Colorized Polyimide Label Material.
