Examples of laminate materials include Formica and Plywood. The materials used in laminates can be the same or different.
For example by applying a layer of plastic film either side of a sheet of glass, the glass is said to be the laminated subject. The plastic is said to be the laminate.
Laminating paper, such as photographs, can prevent them from becoming creased, sun damaged, wrinkled, stained, smudged, abraded and/or marked by grease, fingerprints and environmental concerns.
Three types of laminators are used most often in digital imaging:
Laminate film is generally categorized into these five categories: standard thermal laminating films, low-temperature thermal laminating films, heat-assisted laminating films, pressure-sensitive films and liquid laminates.
