Material Notes:
Product Description: Epolene C-18 is a branched low density polyethylene modified with maleic anhydride. It is useful as a base polymer for adhesives and coatings, color concentrate dispersion, and applications requiring compatibility with polyamide. Coatings produced with Epolene C-18 exhibit high gloss, low moisture vapor transmission rates, grease resistance, and good heat seal ability. In hot melt adhesives, the maleic anhydride modification allows for improved adhesion, greater filler tolerance, broader capabilities, and improved aging properties.Key Attributes:Enhances paraffin wax coating properties like gloss, grease resistance, and MVTR Excellent thermal stabilityMaleic anhydride grafted PE provides functionalityMedium molecular weightUseful in color concentratesApplication/Uses:Automotive OEMAutomotive refinishAutomotiveBuilding and ConstructionHot Melt AdhesivesPackagingSolvent borne Adhesives
