March 17 (adsalecprj.com) -- The new
grades of Vistamaxx propylene-based elastomers offered by petrochemical company
ExxonMobil Chemical has created new opportunities for customers to add value to
their flexible film applications across the value chain. Film manufacturers and
end users are discovering that the combination of benefits offered by Vistamaxx
provides a new level of performance potential.
Enhanced sealability, improved adhesion, inherent elasticity, notable
toughness and broad polyolefin compatibility delivered by Vistamaxx are
inspiring innovation and product development in a wide range of flexible film
applications. These include cast polypropylene (cPP), stretch hood, PP raffia
tape, extrusion coated and laminated woven and nonwoven polyolefinic substrates,
surface protection, cast stretch, and elastic hygiene film. High transparency
film applications also benefit from the good optical properties and chemical
resistance of Vistamaxx.
The complete combination of benefits allows film manufacturers and end user
customers to design films with new levels of performance, lower formulation and
processing costs, and achieve sustainability objectives with lower energy usage,
reduced material consumption and, as Vistamaxx is a polyolefin,
recyclability.
Now four new grades, Vistamaxx 6202FL, Vistamaxx 6102FL, Vistamaxx 3980FL and
Vistamaxx 3020FL, have recently been introduced for high performance film
applications. The FL series of Vistamaxx grades exhibits a low gel count,
provides processing and performance improvements, and protects your investment
in film aesthetics, offering film formulators, converters and end-users
inspiring new options for next generation film designs. These options include:
excellent sealing operation and package integrity; improved film tear resistance
at high stretch ratios; and, improvements in scratch and indent-free surface
protection.
This series of Vistamaxx FL low gel grades can result in outstanding printing
and optical quality and, as with all Vistamaxx grades offered to the film
market, complies with the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and European
Union (EU)-Directive for use in contact with food.
