High barrier PVDC composite rigid film for pharmaceutical packaging

PVDC composite rigid film for pharmaceutical packaging is a composite material commonly used in pharmaceutical packaging. It has good barrier properties and mechanical strength, can effectively extend the shelf life of drugs, and prevent the impact of the external environment on drugs.

What is a high barrier PVDC composite rigid film?

PVDC (polyvinylidene chloride) is a polymer material that is widely used in pharmaceutical packaging due to its excellent barrier properties. High barrier PVDC composite rigid film is usually made of pharmaceutical PVC rigid film or PVC/PE composite rigid film as the base material, and then coated with high barrier material PVDC. Its product structure can be PVC/PVDC or PVC/PE/PVDC, which makes the composite rigid film have higher barrier properties.

Conventional parameters of medicinal PCDC composite rigid films:

Width60~1200mm (may vary from manufacturer to manufacturer)
Thickness0.25~0.40mm (specific thickness can be adjusted according to demand)
PVDC coating amount

40g/m², 60g/m², 90g/m², etc. (the larger the coating amount, the better the barrier performance)

Features of PVDC composite rigid films:

1. High barrier property: effectively block oxygen, water vapor and odor, reducing the risk of drug failure due to oxidation or moisture.

2. Excellent mechanical properties: The rigid film has high strength and is suitable for a variety of automated packaging equipment.

3. Chemical stability: It is resistant to most chemicals and is not easy to react with drugs.

4. Transparency: The appearance is transparent, which is convenient for checking the internal drug status.

5. Easy to form and various colors: It can be made into various shapes and sizes according to demand, with a variety of color options.

6. Safe and non-toxic: Low vinyl chloride monomer and easy oxidation index, in line with drug packaging safety requirements.

7. Environmental protection: Improve production processes and materials, increase recyclability and reduce environmental impact.

Application areas:

Solid preparations: such as blister packaging of tablets, capsules and granules.

Sensitive drugs: such as drugs that are sensitive to oxygen and moisture, requiring additional protection.

Special uses: such as drugs that need to be odor-proof.
