Selenis Bondz BU 098 is a highly modified, crystallized PET resin with medium viscosity. The low ability to crystallize, combined with a low softening point, makes Selenis Bondz BU 098 suitable to be used as outside sealing layer in co-extruded mono-material for APET packaging trays and multilayer blown-film extrusion for lidding film.

Selenis Bondz BU 098 is the perfect solution for brand owners looking to switch to a fully recyclable APET mono-material food packaging tray. By replacing the usual PE layer with this special polyester Selenis Bondz BU 098, the need for a multilayer in the bottom web is eliminated.

Blown film produced with Selenis Bondz BU 098 for lidding films will feature excellent heat-seal bonds as required in form-fill-seal (FFS) applications. Sealing temperature range from 95ºC to 200ºC. This product switches the sealing capability to the lidding film, eliminating the need for the usual PE layer in the bottom web.

Whether using Selenis Bondz BU 098 in the bottom film or lidding film, this solution decreases the packaging weight and cost, as well as allowing for a fully recyclable bottom web in FFS applications, providing packaging that will meet consumer sustainability concerns.
