Akulon® XP: The revolutionary productivity tool for Extrusion Coating
Akulon® XP delivers significant productivity gains on high speed co-extrusion lines.
• Higher line speeds possible compared to Standard PA6 extrusion resins
- Typically a doubling of line speed is achievable •
Less waste: more even barrier layer thickness across width of film, less trim
• Reduced neck-in: Greater usable film thickness • Less
machine power required on the PA barrier layer extruder • Reduced
System Costs, thinner tie and barrier layers due to more even thickness
• Reduced dependence on die design to achieve layer uniformity and
distribution
Akulon® XP. Creating significant value opportunities in end applications
• Puncture resistant layers on paper used for dried food packaging
• Oxygen barrier for drinks cartons, eliminating more expensive aluminum layer
• Coatable on non-wovens for high temperature dust and water sealant systems
