Unveiling the Materials of RFID Smart Cards: A Brief Guide

Introduction


RFID smart cards are widely used in daily life—from access control to membership management. The material of a card directly affects its performance and use cases. Below is a simple breakdown of common RFID card materials.


PVC: Versatile & Budget - Friendly


The most popular choice for RFID cards. It’s affordable, flexible, and durable (resists bending). Ideal for membership cards, access cards, and basic ID cards. Special processes can reduce metal interference for specific needs.


PC: Durable & High - Performance


Offers high strength, wear resistance, and tolerance to extreme temperatures. No burrs after punching, keeping a good look long - term. Perfect for high - demand cards like ID cards, payment cards, and transit cards.



ABS: Strong & Reliable


Has good impact and wear resistance. With anti - metal fillers or multi - layer design, it works well for industrial tool identification, logistics, and asset management.


PET: High - Quality & Adaptable


Boasts high strength, transparency, and resistance to water/chemicals. Moderately flexible, suitable for high - end product labels (electronics, cosmetics) and fixed asset management.



Transparent PVC: Clear & Functional


Combines the transparency of glass with PVC’s durability and flexibility. Great for cards needing to show internal chips or unique designs.
