Blox 0000 Series Epoxy absed Dow Chemical Epoxide (EP) ADHESIVE BLOX 0000 Series Resins are specially formulated for easy processability and good melt stability in a variety of processes. New-to-the-world thermoplastic resins featuring excellent gas barrier protection Exceptional adhesion Outstanding optical properties Processable on conventional thermoplastic equipment Available in wide range of viscosities for specific applications Applications include beverage containers and other co-extruded or co-injected articles requiring O2 and CO2 barrier protection BLOX* High-Adhesion Barrier Resins are part of a new family of epoxybased thermoplastics. These amorphous materials exhibit exceptional gas barrier protection, excellent adhesion to a variety of substrates, superior mechanical toughness and stiffness, and high-quality optical clarity and color BLOX High-Adhesion Barrier Resins offer outstanding adhesion, as well as excellent gas barrier, clarity, and mechanical strength and toughness. This combination of properties makes them ideal for use in the rigid packaging of oxygen- and carbon dioxide-sensitive beverages such as beer, juice and carbonated soft drinks. Because these resins provide superior adhesion to PET, delamination problems that occur with other barrier resins are significantly reduced, or frequently eliminated. The outstanding adhesion of BLOX High-Adhesion Barrier Resins gives bottle makers the design flexibility needed to create bottles that meet the rigorous branding demands of fillers’ packaging and marketing departments. BLOX High-Adhesion Barrier Resins can be tailored to provide a range of barrier levels, allowing customers to optimize package cost and performance. BLOX High-Adhesion Barrier Resins provide equal or better shelf-life properties than competitive barrier polymers, at a comparable per-unit cost. Epoxy based thermoplastic resin. Offers very good gas barrier protection, adhesion to a variety of substrates, superior mechanical toughness and stiffness and high-quality optical clarity and color. Provides easy processability and good melt stability in a variety of processes.
