Glassine Paper, also known as waxed paper, is a thin oil-resistant packaging material. This product features fine, soft paper with a translucent texture, offering excellent oil resistance and impermeability. Both sides of the paper exhibit high smoothness and good glossiness, while the material is sturdy with high burst resistance and tear resistance.The grammage range of glassine paper typically falls between 14-50gsm, available in both roll and flat sheet forms, with an opacity of 70%-80%. It is colorless or can be dyed in various other hues, with common dimensions including 730*980mm, 787*1092mm, and 889*1194mm, while rolls come in sizes such as 10-1200mm. Due to its tightly bound fibers, glassine paper generally exhibits excellent mechanical strength. The surface is exceptionally smooth with minimal porosity, facilitating subsequent printing, lamination, and other processing operations. It also demonstrates good oil resistance and a certain degree of moisture-proof performance.
