ASPUN™ - Fibre Resins

Searching for softness?

Imagine lying on a cloud, feeling that incredibly lightweight, super-soft sensation against your skin. Feels good, right? That's why Resinex is proud to distribute ASPUN™ Fibre Grade Resins, developed by our trusted supplier, DOW. Through our collaboration with industry colleagues and customers, we've brought you the exceptional softness of ASPUN™ resins.

ASPUN™ offers more than just softness and comfort in the end application; these resins process exceptionally well. How?

• The ability to process across a wide temperature range (220° to 300° C), allowing it to be used with different polymers.
• A low melting temperature, compared to PP, enabling quick and efficient bonding.
• Fast crystallisation kinetics allowing for high melting temperatures during processing.
   

Let's find the right grade for you

Every ASPUN™ grade has something unique to offer. At Resinex, we can work with you to deliver the results you're looking for.

One example: ASPUN™ 6000 Polyethylene Fibre Grade Resins, engineered to produce ultra-soft nonwovens. They improve spinning performance as well as thermal bonding and are designed for long-term processability. In addition to all the comfort properties of ASPUN™ resins, this one has improved abrasion resistance (low linting and fuzzing) when combined with other materials in bicomponent fibres.

Blends of ASPUN™ resins with DOWLEX™ Polyethylene Resins, AGILITY™ Performance LDPE Resins, or DOW™ LDPE Resins can offer desired combinations of softness and strength. ASPUN™ resins also work well with polypropylene (PP) or polyester (PET) structures. Typical nonwoven applications include top sheets, back sheets, and the acquisition distribution layer.

Plus, the latest offering, ASPUN™ MB Meltblown Fibre Resins, offers additional processing efficiencies, including:

• Comparable throughput rates with lower extruder and die pressures than PP.
• The potential for lower production costs based on reduced air temperature, air flow rate, and melt temperature.
