Admer NF538A Polyethylene Mitsui Chemicals Polyolefins (PE, PP) >> Polyethylene & derivatives ADHESIVE ADMER® Adhesive Resin is a modified polyolefin with functional groups, designed to bond to a variety of polyolefins, ionomers, polyamides, ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH), polyesters (PET), polycarbonates, polystyrenes and metals such as steel and aluminum. ADMER serves as a tie-layer in unique multi-layer structures to combine properties of different materials, such as gas barrier resins and moisture barrier resins. Provides strong adhesion ADMER® adheres, by thermal reaction, to Nylon (Ny), EVOH, polystyrene (PS), polyesters (PET, PETG), polycarbonate (PC), polyolefins (PP, PE) and metals such as steel and aluminum. Adhesion Durability and Polyolefin-like Properties Its mechanical strength, heat resistance and chemical resistance properties distinguishes ADMER and enables the compound to be boiled, hot filled and retorted. ADMER® is used in numerous applications as an adhesive layer. When coextruded with gas barrier resin into a tube, bottle, sheet or film, it serves as an ideal food packaging due to its ability to act as an oxygen, flavor and odor permeation barrier. As a result, it is used in ketchup, mayonnaise, BBQ sauce, salad dressing, pudding, meat, cheese, pasta sauce, soup and applesauce packaging. The coextrusion coating of ADMER with other plastics onto paper or foil has yielded other opportunities in the food packaging area, which the company is pursing. The versatility of this thermoplastic also makes ADMER suitable for cosmetics and pharmaceutical product packaging as well as applicable to a number of industrial uses such as steel pipe lining and wire and cable coating Low density polyethylene resin. Used as an adhesive layer. Adheres to ethylene vinyl alcohol by thermal reaction. Offers strong adhesion. Provides mechanical strength, heat and chemical resistance.
