Product Availability Product Description
Natur-Tec® BF3001J North America
Natur-Tec® BF3001J is a 100% biobased and biodegradable polymer resin compound designed to replace conventional plastic materials for extrusion coating applications. Natur-Tec® BF3001J is manufactured using sustainable and renewable resources, per the ASTM D6866 standard, which allows industry and consumers the opportunity to reduce or neutralize their carbon footprint. Natur-Tec® resins are engineered for high performance and can easily be processed on conventional manufacturing equipment while offering energy savings due to much lower processing temperatures. The BF3001J is designed to meet the requirements of international standards for compostable plastics such as ASTM D6400 (U.S.). Natur-Tec® extrusion coating resins provide good adhesion to paper, an excellent print surface and good heat seal strength. This coating material is suitable for food contact applications including both hot and cold applications. Please refer to the Material Safety Data Sheet and the Processing Guide for specific handling and processing instructions. Natur-Tec® BF3001J can be used for coating paper and paperboards for the manufacture of disposable cups, plates and other food service ware items.
Natur-Tec® BF3002 North America
Natur-Tec® BF3002 is a biobased and biodegradable polymer resin compound and is designed to replace conventional plastic materials for injection molded plastic applications. Natur-Tec® BF3002 is manufactured using sustainable and renewable resources, per the ASTM D6866 standard, which allows industry and consumers the opportunity to reduce or neutralize their carbon footprint. Natur-Tec® resins are engineered for high performance and can easily be processed on conventional manufacturing equipment. Natur-Tec® BF3002 (or BF703B-X, X > 80) is designed to meet requirements of international standards for compostable plastics such as ASTM D6400 (U.S.) and EN13432. Please refer to the Material Safety Data Sheet and the Processing Guide for specific handling and processing instructions. Natur-Tec® BF3002 can be used for injection molded plastic applications such as making cutlery, pens, hangers, containers and packaging.
Natur-Tec® BF703B North America
Natur-Tec ® BF703B is a fully biodegradable/compostable biopolymer resin designed specifically for flexible film applications. Natur-Tec resins are fully certified to the stringent requirements of international standards for compostable plastics, such as ASTM D6400, EN 13432 and ISO 17088, and therefore provide an environmentally friendly alternative to conventional plastics. The Natur-Tec BF703B resin is engineered for high performance and can be easily processed on standard extrusion equipment. Natur-Tec films are strong and tough with excellent heat seal strength, and provide excellent printability. For applications where high barrier properties are required, Natur-Tec films can be easily combined with other substrates in a laminate structure to achieve the desired properties. Applications: - Compostable Trash/Garbage Bags - Carry-out Bags - Agricultural Mulch Film - Films for Food Service and Consumer Packaging - Heat sealant layer for Laminate Packaging structures
