Films & Packing Applications

Our Polyvinyl Alcohol and Ultiloc resins using Selvol™ offer a unique variety of attributes:

• Possible water solubility
• Possible biodegradability/compostability
• Oxygen and other gas/odor barrier properties
• Resistance to solvents, oils and greases
• Inherently anti-static
• Innocuous and environmentally friendly

Selvol™ Ultiloc Barrier Resins have established gas barrier performance with superior adhesion properties, making them an excellent fit for a variety of flexible packing applications. Selvol™ Ultiloc Barrier Resins can offer the following in the preparation of flexible films:

• Thinner films with a reduction in gauge weight
• Potential to reduce the number of layers in laminate structures – with the elimination of adhesive tie layers.
• Improved film clarity.
• Potential to replace other barrier technologies.

Selvol™ Ultiloc 5003 characteristics include.

• Superior Oxygen Transmission Rate (OTR) performance
• Non-Chlorine containing product.
• Higher reactivity for greater cross linking characteristics that can improve MVTR performance.
• Excellent adhesion properties and can be coated directly onto corona treated BOPP & BOPET, therefore
  • No need for adhesive tie layers
  • Producing thinner/simplified laminate films
• Produces an ultra-clear coating
• Heat-sealable
