The service life of the sealing liner, I guess you don't know
一、 Normal service life conditions
The service life of the sealing liner (aluminum foil sealing film) is determined by the following objective conditions:
1. Unpackaged state (storage period)
In the original packaging with temperature ≤ 25 ℃ and relative humidity ≤ 65%
Store away from light and chemical solvents
The standard product shelf life is 24-36 months
2. Encapsulated state (service life)

3. Basic lifespan determined by material
Ordinary PE heat sealing layer: basic protection, suitable for products with pH 5-9
Surlyn coating: resistant to chemical corrosion, with a lifespan 40-60% longer than PE layer
Aluminum foil thickness: 40 μ m improves oxygen barrier properties by about 15-20% compared to 30 μ m
Composite layer number: The water vapor barrier performance of the 4-layer structure is improved by about 30% compared to the 3-layer structure
二、 Specific factors affecting lifespan
1. Temperature impact
For every 10 ℃ increase in storage temperature, the material aging rate increases by approximately 1.5-2 times
Continuous exposure to temperatures above 40 ℃ may lead to adhesion or embrittlement of the heat seal layer
2. Mechanical stress
Frequent squeezing and deformation can cause microcracks in aluminum foil
Cracks can increase oxygen permeability by tens of times
3. Content compatibility
PH<4 or>9 will accelerate the corrosion of aluminum layer
Ester and ketone solvents may dissolve the heat sealing layer
三、 Clear indication of end of life
Any of the following situations indicates that the sealing liner has failed:
Physical damage: visible cracks, perforations, or delamination
Sealing failure: leakage at the bottle mouth or easy detachment
Chemical corrosion: aluminum layer shows spots, blackening, or large-scale peeling off
Content contamination: sealing liner material falls off into the product
4、 Usage suggestions
Matching selection: Select the corresponding material sealing liner based on the chemical properties of the content
Batch management: follow the principle of "first in, first out" to avoid overdue inventory
Environmental control: Maintain stable temperature and humidity in the storage environment
Process validation: Ensure that the temperature, pressure, and time parameters of the sealing equipment are correct
Regular inspection: Check the appearance changes of inventory materials every 6 months
5、 Technical Conclusion
The sealing liner can be used for up to 36 months under ideal conditions, but the actual effective life after packaging is usually:
Dry neutral products: 12-24 months
Ordinary liquid products: 6-12 months
Corrosive products: 1-6 months (special materials required)
In short, sealing liners, like sealing films, are disposable sealing products and their sealing performance cannot be restored in any way. When the service life expires or failure characteristics appear, it must be replaced, otherwise the sealing protection function will be completely lost.
Leadtra Packaging focuses on the research, development, production, and sales of waterproof and breathable films. Its sealing film has good sealing performance, anti-counterfeiting effect, and prevents product content from evaporating and contaminating. The sealing performance can be odorless, and it also has anti-counterfeiting and anti-theft properties. In addition, company advertisements can be printed on the sealing film to achieve promotional effects.
