BYNEL® Series 4100 series resins are anhydride-modified, linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) resins. All BYNEL Series 4100 series resins are available in pellet form for use in conventional extrusion and coextrusion equipment designed to process polyethylene resins.
BYNEL 41E871 is a grade with a mediium-high level of anhydride modification, and is mainly intended for use as a component in a blend with other polyolefin resins.
Physical properties of BYNEL Series 4100 resins are typical of linear low-density polyethylene resins with similar density and melt index values. Use of these adhesive resins in coextruded PE/barrier structures offers improved thermal resistance over that of ethylene vinyl acetate-based adhesive resins.
Applications
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, which 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.
