Due to their mechanical cohesion and adhesive properties, ethylene copolymers and terpolymers are widely used in manufacturing hot-melts.

We distinguish 2 families of copolymers: ethylene vinyl acetate copolymers and ethylene acrylic ester copolymers, and two families of terpolymers: ethylene acrylic ester terpolymers and ethylene vinyl acetate terpolymers.

All polymers are highly flexible products, compatible with many other polymers and additives, and are easy to process. They offer an excellent cost-performance ratio and are closely tailored to the requirements of the industry. Ethylene copolymer based hot-melts will present a very good adhesion on various substrates (such as paper, wood, plastics, metals...) and a broad operating window.

In this Ethylene Copolymers Center, you will find an extended overview of the key benefits provided by ethylene copolymers, their applications and end-use markets. For direct access to specific information, click on the image below.
