Ethylene Vinyl Acetate Copolymer Resin
Product Description
FL 01418 is primarily designed for high speed/low coating weight extrusion coating and is a good coextrusion partner with other polymers. FL 01418 is an excellent sealing material with a very low seal initiation temperature and high clarity. Processing Conditions Excellent results are obtained in extrusion coating at 225 °C (437°F) temperature range. Processing temperatures above 240°C (464°F) may cause resin degradation. FL01418 should be fed into the extruder after LDPE of a similar or higher melt index. Machines should always be purged with LDPE or a suitable cleaning compound before shutdown.
