Elvax 3200-2

A propos de ce produit

roduct Description:
ELVAX™ 3200-2 is an extrudable, wax modified, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer resin available in pellet form for use in conventional extrusion equipment designed to process polyethylene resins.

Composition
22.5 % By Weight Vinyl Acetate comonomer content
Wax
Thermal Stabilizer: BHT antioxidant

Applications
This resin is designed to provide a low temperature heat seal to itself or many other materials commonly used in flexible packaging applications. The melt properties of this resin allow it to be processed on extrusion coating equipment over a wide range of line speeds and coating thicknesses. It can also be coextrusion coated with a variety of other polymers. This resin is typically used as a lidding sealant for a variety of formed containers, in replacement of solvent applied heat seal lacquers. It will provide a good seal against HDPE film and sheet, polypropylene film, PVDC, rigid vinyl, rigid and foamed polystyrene, and nitrocellulose coatings.
ELVAX™3200-2 will provide a low-temperature heat seal. The actual heat seal initiation temperature, sealing range, and ultimate seal strength will depend on variables such as coating structure, thickness, substrate type, thermal conductivity of structure, type of heat sealing equipment, end-use environment, and many others.
Because a quantitative description of heat seal performance can only be determined for a given application, it is imperative that heat seal properties be evaluated for each specific application. However, for a relative comparison of heat seal initiation temperatures, the Vicat temperature of each ELVAX™ resin can be considered.
