Product Description
Oxyshield®1545 is a 0.59 mil (15 micron) biaxially oriented nylon 6 film coated on one side with PVdC. The coating is applied without the need for a primer layer and so presents superior coating adhesion and laminating adhesion to other films. Medium oxygen and moisture vapor barrier and superior clarity are properties well suited for packaging applications requiring excellent mechanical strength and long shelf life.
