Eliminates rheology mismatches between polyethylene and the barrier layer
• Layer thickness distribution more even and less dependent on die design.
Better film clarity
• Reduced neck-in. Wider usable film width,
quality constant right up to the edges, lower scrap
• Lower barrier
film thickness variations, thinner tie and barrier layers possible for given
specification
Lower machine power requirements
• Increase line speeds where barrier
layer extruder is limiting factor
Akulon® XP improves blown film stability and enables new multilayer
constructions
The improved shear viscosity gives Akulon XP its own
inherent bubble stability. LDPE can be eliminated from constructions where its
main function is to provide bubble stability.
