Special Notes
Generally, paper-converting machines can be used. However, YUPO®'s attributes differ to organic paper in some aspects, so please read the following before carrying out any processing.
1 YUPO® is non-absorbent and non-permeable.
2 If YUPO® is left in a high-temperature environment, thermal contraction and distortions may occur. Contraction will be greater at right-angles to the grain than in the direction of the grain.
3 When rolling YUPO® up for use, the tension must be extremely low. If it is pulled strongly in the direction that it unwinds, it will stretch. If the ambient temperature is high at this time, the stretching will be more pronounced.
4 If YUPO®'s edge gets nicked once, it will be prone to tearing from that point. YUPO® tears more easily in the direction of the grain.
5 YUPO® is difficult to fold and tends to become unfolded.

6 If YUPO® comes into contact with printed material made of conventional paper, it may curl or change shape due to swelling as a result of the solvents in ink for conventional paper (i.e., solvent attack). Avoid using YUPO® and conventional paper together.
