Product Description
AFFINITY™ PT 1451G1 Polyolefin Plastomer (POP) produced using INSITE™ Technology from Dow, is specifically designed for extrusion coating and other cast extrusion processing.

AFFINITY PT 1451G1 Polyolefin Plastomer is a tough and high performance and low temperature sealant. Its ease of processability in combination with other common extrusion coating polyolefins, i.e. LDPE or PRIMACOR™ polymers, provides optimum sensory performance. The high clarity and adhesion to PP makes coatings of AFFINITY PT 1451G1 Polyolefin Plastomer fit for use in combination with OPP or primed PET high clarity films. Coextrusions of AFFINITY PT 1451G1 Polyolefin Plastomer with PRIMACOR polymers for adhesion to foil offer cost effective high performance sealant structures with exceptional potential for source reduction.

Note:
AFFINITY PT 1451G1 Polyolefin Plastomer should comply with FDA regulation 21 CFR 177.1520 (c) 3.2c and with most European food contact regulations when used unmodified and processed according to good manufacturing practices for food contact applications. Please contact your nearest Dow office regarding food contact compliance statements. The purchaser remains responsible for determining whether the use complies with all relevant regulations.
