New product: Olefin film resin

Feb. 2, 2010
The cyclic olefin copolymer improves polymer blend strength and low-temperature shrinkage.

TOPAS 9903D-10 cyclic olefin copolymer (COC) film extrusion resin is an amorphous, transparent, moisture-blocking, polymer. It has a 33°C glass transition temperature for low-temperature shrinkage, a 100 ksi tensile modulus, and a 0.9 melt flow index.

The resin can be added to melts such as ultra linear-low-density polyethylene in concentrations of 5 to 50% for single and double-layer shrink films and packaging.
