BYNEL® Series 4100 resins are anhydride-modified, linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) resins. All 4100 series resins are available in pellet form for use in conventional extrusion and coextrusion equipment designed to process polyethylene (PE) resin.
BYNEL 4140 is a grade with a higher level of anhydride modification, and is mainly intended for use as a component in a blend with other polyolefin resins. It is not intended for extrusion in its pure form in typical extrusions or coextrusions.
BYNEL 4100 series resins adhere to a variety of materials. They are most often used to adhere to EVOH, polyamide, PE and ethylene copolymers.
Series 4100 resins can be used in coextrusion processes including:
- melt and solid phase thermoforming
LLDPE resins are known for their temperature resistance, clarity and toughness.
These physical properties make the 4100 series resins work well in applications such as:
- blow molded containers in which drop strength is important
- film where LLDPE is the heat seal layer.
