Product Description
Escor 6000 is primarily intended for extrusion coating and coextrusion coating. Escor 6000 is the high draw down version of Escor 5000. Very low coating weight achievable at high line speed.
Very good adhesion to polar substrates, aluminum foil, metallized films, papers, iron, steel and glass. Offers excellent balance of adhesion onto the substrates and interlayer adhesion with coextruded LDPE and EVA's.

Extrusion Notes
Excellent results are obtained in extrusion coating at 260 - 280°C (500 - 536F) temperature range. Processing temperatures above 300°C (572°F) may cause resin degradation.
To minimise corrosion risk, all exposed metal surfaces in the extruder and die should be made from corrosion resistant metals or nickel/chrome plated. ESCOR should be fed into the extruder after LDPE of a similar or higher melt index. Machines should always be completely purged with LDPE or a suitable cleaning compound before shutdown.
