ADMER® PP-type Grades

PREFACE

ADMER® PP type grades are designed for multi-layer films, bottles or sheets composed of poly-propylene (PP) and EVOH or PA.These grades are based on PP. As a result of our advanced anhydride grafting technology, thesegrades create superb adhesion to EVOH and PA, while maintaining an excellent processability anda thermal stability equivalent to that of common PP.

CHARACTERISTICS

Homopolymer-PP based grades:QB510E: Standard grade for Bottle, Sheet and Blown Film.QB520E: Advanced grade for Bottle and Sheet.QF300E: Standard grade for Cast Film with PA.

Copolymer-PP based gradeQF551E: Advanced grade for Film.
