Label Requirements
Adhesive
Permanent pressure sensitive – Nominal thickness 10 µ meter (0.0004 inch)
Label must adhere to product with a surface temperature of -15° C (5° F) minimum.
Bond strength must remain permanent over a temperature range of 2°C to 35°C (35°F to 95° F)
Release Liner
DESCRIPTION: White semi-bleached supercalendered Kraft paper with silicone release coating.
BASIS WEIGHT: 68 ± 3 gram/square meter
THICKNESS: 67 ± 7 µ METER (0.0026 INCH)
Total Thickness Label + Adhesive + Liner
159 ± 17 µ METER (0.0056 to 0.0069 inch)
Light Transmission For Gap Sensor Operation
Light transmission at 800 to 900 NM wave length through the liner only must be at least 3 times the
transmission through the liner and label together. This means that the transmission optical density
of the liner must be at least 0.48 less than the that of the liner and label together.
Light transmission at 800 to 900 NM wave length through the liner and label together must be at
least 2% of incident light. This corresponds to an optical density of 1.7.
Also see OPTICAL DENSITY DEFINITION further in this chapter.
Label Stripping
Labels must strip from the liner over a temperature range of 2°C (26°F) at 50% RH
to 43°C (110°F) at 85% RH.
