Which printing method is better for effervescent tube labels

 "The outer packaging of the medicine represents the image of the pharmaceutical company, and the choice of printing method will directly affect the presentation effect of the packaging label. Then, as an effervescent tube for the special packaging of effervescent tablets, which printing method is used for the external label is more effective Okay?

effervescent packaging

The label printing methods on the market now include screen printing and flexographic printing. Not only are the processing techniques complicated, the cycle is long, and the timeliness is poor. To realize the printing of anti-counterfeiting marks such as digital codes and bar codes, it needs to be printed multiple times. With the improvement of customers' requirements for printing quality, an emerging thermal transfer printing method has become a common choice for effervescent tube labels.

Thermal transfer is divided into two parts: transfer film printing and transfer processing. The transfer film printing adopts dot printing, and the pattern is printed on the surface of the film in advance. The printed pattern has rich layers, bright colors, ever-changing, small color difference, and good reproducibility. Can achieve the effect required by the designer, and is suitable for mass production. The transfer process transfers the exquisite patterns on the transfer film to the surface of the product through a heat transfer machine (heating and pressure). After the forming, the ink layer and the product surface are integrated into one, which is vivid and beautiful, greatly improving the quality of the product.

The function of the effervescent tube label is to highlight the characteristics of the product, improve the visual effect of the product, and enhance the anti-counterfeiting performance of the product. Based on the various printing methods currently on the market, thermal transfer can make the finished label display better, and it has become a common choice in the market. "

Will the desiccant in the effervescent tube contaminate the medicine?

 Medicines are items that are kept at home, whether they are medicines or health care products, a large part of them are packaged in plastic bottles. In order to prevent medicines from getting damp, denatured, and invalidated, a desiccant is generally placed in the bottle. Will the desiccant in the bottle contaminate the medicine? This article will take the effervescent tube packaging as an example to explain in detail.

84mm*29mm effervescent tablet tube

First of all, the medicinal desiccant itself is non-toxic and harmless, and has super moisture absorption properties. Before being used in medicines, it must obtain the "Medicine Packaging Material Registration Certificate" issued by the State Drug Administration. The only desiccant that can be used in medicine is mainly made of silica gel desiccant. This kind of desiccant has stable chemical properties, high adsorption performance, good thermal stability, stable chemical properties, and high mechanical strength. Will cause pollution to medicines.

Secondly, the desiccant placement position of the effervescent tube is special. General drug desiccants are selected in bags and placed together with the drugs. Due to the particularity of effervescent tablets and the space in the bottle, the effervescent tube adopts a desiccant that is more in line with its own storage characteristics. Designed, there is a small medicine storehouse on the top of the bottle cap to store silica gel and molecular sieve. This method can avoid the contact between the desiccant and the medicine, maintain the dryness of the environment in the bottle, and effectively prevent children from eating the desiccant by mistake.

To sum up, unless the pharmaceutical packaging of the desiccant in the effervescent tube is damaged, it will cause secondary pollution to the medicine. Under normal circumstances, the medicinal desiccant has less chance of chemical reaction with common things in life, and the safety is very high.

Effervescent tablet tube sizes

As a special medicine, effervescent tablets play an important role in national health. For effervescent tablets to maintain good efficacy and stability, a suitable packaging is essential. When purchasing effervescent tablet tubes, many people often only pay attention to the moisture-proof and tightness of the packaging. As everyone knows, the choice of bottle size is also important. It is related to whether the tablets can be stored well.

Common effervescent tablets have a diameter of about 27mm. When choosing an effervescent tablet tube, it is generally most suitable for the bottle diameter to be larger than the tablet diameter by 2mm. If the diameter is too large, tablets are prone to shaking, and too small a diameter is not conducive to filling. The height of effervescent tablet is generally 6mm-7mm, and the height of effervescent tablet tube is 84mm, 96mm, 99mm, 133mm, 144mm and other sizes. The number of effervescent tablets that can be accommodated in different heights is different. Pharmaceutical companies need to meet their own needs. Choosing the right size is critical to whether the cap of the effervescent tube can play its role.

The lid of the effervescent tube is generally made of low-density polyethylene, which has good toughness and resistance to many organic solvents. The lid is equipped with a spiral spring, which is soft and shrinkable. When the lid is closed, the spring exerts a certain pressure on the tablet downward, which plays a role of shockproof, pressure resistance and sealing, and can well buffer the impact during transportation. Ensure that the tablets in the bottle do not shift or shake, so as to maintain the integrity of the effervescent tablet.

It is worth noting that the total height of the medicine after filling the effervescent tablet needs to achieve a good fit with the spring on the cap of the effervescent tablet tube. If the distance is too large, the spring cannot play its due role, and the distance is too small. Too much pressure can easily crush the effervescent tablet. Only a proper distance can prevent the effervescent tablet from shaking due to external forces such as vibration and squeezing during transportation, resulting in damage to the effervescent tablet.

Pharmaceutical packaging is a medium for communication between pharmaceutical companies and consumers, and a silent promotion. Appropriate packaging must not only meet its basic functions such as storage, moisture-proof, and sealing, but the choice of packaging size is also important for the storage of medicines. With the continuous advancement of science and technology, people's attention to health and environmental awareness are increasing, and environmental protection, safety and humanization have become the future development trend of pharmaceutical packaging.

 

Desiccant in effervescent tablet packaging

 

Do you know the desiccant in effervescent tablet packaging types? Desiccant is used for medicines, foods are moisture-proof and mildew-proof. Commonly used desiccants can be classified into physical adsorption desiccants and chemical adsorption desiccants. Silica gel desiccants in physical adsorption desiccants meet the US FDA standards and are verified to be free of human body. Silica gel desiccants physically adsorb water molecules in their structures.

The desiccant in the cap of effervescent tubes rarely uses a chemically adsorbed desiccant. Commonly used desiccants for chemical adsorption include quicklime, magnesium chloride, calcium chloride, soda lime, phosphorus pentoxide, etc., absorbing water molecules to change their chemical structure and become another substance. Molecular sieves are another commonly used desiccant. The molecular sieve is a crystalline silicate or aluminosilicate, which is a channel and cavity system formed by a silicon oxytetrahedron or an aluminoxy tetrahedron connected by an oxygen bridge. It can be divided into pore size by high-efficiency desiccant, selective adsorbent, catalyst, ion exchanger, etc. The molecular sieves with pore size less than 2nm, 2-50nm and greater than 50nm are called microporous, mesoporous and macroporous molecular sieves, respectively.
