Ethylene Acrylic Acid Copolymer Resin

Product Description
Escor™ 5050 resin is primarily intended for extrusion coating, coextrusion coating, and extrusion lamination. It has very good adhesion to polar substrates, aluminum foil, metallized films, paper, iron, steel, and glass. It offers excellent balance of adhesion onto substrates and interlayer adhesion with coextruded LDPE and EVA material.

Legal Statement
Contact your ExxonMobil Chemical Customer Service Representative for potential food contact application compliance (e.g. FDA, EU, HPFB).

This product is not intended for use in medical applications and should not be used in any such applications.
 
Processing Statement
Typical values obtained on a pilot coextrusion coating line at ExxonMobil Europe Technical Center, at an air gap of 170 mm (6.69 in). Excellent results are obtained in extrusion coating at 260°C to 280°C (500 - 536 °F) temperature range. Processing temperatures above 300°C (572 °F) may cause resin degradation. To minimize corrosion risk, all exposed metal surfaces in the extruder and die should be made from corrosion resistant metals or nickel/chrome plated. Escor™ resin should be fed into the extruder after LDPE of a similar or higher melt index. Machines should always be completely purged with LDPE or a suitable cleaning compound before shutdown.
