Orevac® 18751

Generic Family: Polypropylene HomopolymerSupplied by: Arkema
OREVAC® 18751 is a coextrusion coating adhesive based on a maleic anhydride modified polypropylene resin. It is available in pellet form for use in conventional extrusion and coextrusion equipment designed to process polyolefin.

Applications
OREVAC® 18751 is a tie resin to be used in extrusion coating and extrusion lamination technologies. It has been designed to develop adhesion in these processes onto substrates like aluminum foil (*), paper or PP films and in coextrusion with resins like PP and PA.

OREVAC® 18751 exhibits excellent processing properties, particularly regarding drawability, neck-in and melt stability. In addition to adhesive properties, the special formulation of OREVAC® 18751 allows to design aluminum lids for PP or PP coated cups and containers with controlled opening forces (**).

(*) Adhesion performance to aluminum foil is strongly dependant on thermal conditions in the laminator. Standard conditions of coating onto cold aluminum foil require using a specific post heating treatment in which the Orevac layer must be molten again.

(**) Compared to the other extrusion-coating grade OREVAC® 18750, OREVAC® 18751 is slightly more crystalline, leading to lower fat uptake, higher elastic modulus, higher yield strength and thus, higher opening forces in lids applications.
