How long is the shelf life of sticky mats
Customers often ask questions such as how long is the shelf life of sticky mats.
Before answering this question, let me briefly introduce the material composition of sticky mats. The main material of sticky mats is LDPE low-density polyethylene coated with pressure-sensitive glue. The key point is the control of viscosity and the thickness of PDPE film. Low viscosity will directly affect its dust removal effect and storage cycle. At present, sticky mat manufacturers have different opinions on the shelf life, some are half a year, some are 8 months, and some are one year. Whether it is half a year or one year, the key is that sticky mats are consumables. The longer the storage time, the easier it is for the glue to evaporate naturally, which will cause the viscosity to decrease, directly affecting the use effect.
The sticky mats produced by our company are mainly high-viscosity sticky mats with a viscosity value of about 600 grams. Its shelf life is 8 months, but we recommend that customers try to use it up within half a year, and it is best to use it up within 3 months in summer. Therefore, when purchasing sticky mats, we strongly recommend that customers purchase a one-time amount that is limited to two months of usage, so as to avoid viscosity reduction due to inevitable natural evaporation. At the same time, attention should be paid to the airtightness of the outer packaging when storing sticky mats, and avoid storage environments such as ventilation and high temperatures.
