Product Description
DARTEK® N201 is a nylon film made from type 6,6 polymer - the condensation product of adipic acid and hexamethylinene diamine.

DARTEK® N201 has been primarily formulated for pouch and primal bag applications and is not recommended, nor guaranteed for thermoforming. However, it does provide a barrier to oil, greases and odours. DARTEK® N201 also has low permeability to oxygen and good overall physical properties.

  • Easily printed and laminated to PE for pouch and VFFS applications
  • Grease and oil resistant

Can be supplied in widths from 254 mm to 2235 mm (10 inches to 88 inches) in the gauges shown below. DARTEK® N201 is normally treated both sides for ink, adhesive and coating receptivity.
Please note: Additional gauges may also be available. Please speak with one of our Customer Service Representatives or your Account Manager for further information.
