Product Description
IOTEK 4200 is a Zinc neutralized ethylene based acid copolymer, which offers :
  • outstanding sealability, high hot tack and seal through contamination
  • film of high impact strength and puncture resistance
  • low odor

Processing Conditions:
To minimize corrosion risk, all exposed metal surfaces in the extruder and die should be made from corrosion resistant metals or nickel/chrome plated.
IOTEK 4200 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.
Cation containing polymers pick up moisture from the atmosphere if exposed for prolonged periods. It is therefore recommended to reseal tightly the package after each production run.
