INEOS LDPE 18R430 Ineos Polyolefins Polyethylene, Low Density

Product Description

18R430 is a tailored extrusion coating resin. It is especially suitable for coating at high production line speeds and where thin coating layers or low temperature heat sealing properties are required, for example in coextruded coatings or for coating textiles and non-wovens. It provides excellent substrate wettability and good adhesion.

18R430 is also suitable for injection molding of flexible products.

Benefits and Features
18R430 is an additive free low density ethylene homopolymer. Its special polymer structure gives the following properties:

Low coating weights as a result of excellent draw down

Good flow properties and excellent processability

Low fumes during extrusion

Good organoleptical properties

Excellent substrate wettability

Good adhesion on many substrates especially on non-wovens and textiles

Excellent heat sealing properties

High purity and very low gel level.
