The difference between glassine backing paper and white heavy backing paper in thermal paper

Thermal paper is also known as thermal fax paper, thermal recording paper, thermal copy paper. As a kind of processed paper, thermal paper is manufactured by coating a layer of "thermal paint" (thermal discoloration layer) on high-quality base paper. The back is coated with adhesive, and the backing paper is attached, which is called a thermal paper self-adhesive label.

Commonly used are glassine paper (glassine) or white thick bottom, kraft paper, polyester (PET), polyethylene (PE) and so on.
