Product Description
AMPLIFY™ GR 204 Functional Polymer is a maleic anhydride grafted (MAH) polymer concentrate designed as a blend component for unmodified polyethylene. AMPLIFY GR 204 Functional Polymer promotes adhesion of polyethylene to polyamide and ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH). The functionality of this polymer also promotes adhesion between metal, polyolefins, cellulose, polyester, polycarbonate, glass, and foil.

Main Characteristics:
  • Maleic anhydride modified HDPE
  • Adhesive concentrate for use in blown or cast film and coating applications

Complies with:
  • U.S. FDA 21 CFR 175.105
Consult the regulations for complete details.
