BindEX E-189

BindEX E-189 is a maleic anhydride modified metallocene based linear low density polyethylene. With advanced anhydride grafting technology, this grade is used to combine multilayer structures involving Nylon 6, Nylon 66, or EVOH for gas barrier properties with variety of HDPE, LLDPE and LDPE grades for functions like, moisture barrier, sealability etc.

Applications
  • Maleic anhydride groups chemically react with amine groups of PA or hydroxyl groups of EVOH, while polyethylene part adheres naturally with polyethylene on the other side, thus giving a composite structure.
  • Designed to use as a tie layer resin in conventional extrusion and co-extrusion equipments for making multilayer films.
  • Can be used in its pure form as well as in diluted form, depending on the inter-layer adhesion required in the end-application.
Processing Conditions
  • BindEX E-189 can be processed on most of the standard extrusion equipments designed to process conventional polyolefins.
  • Maximum processing temperature should not exceed 280°C.
  • At temperatures above 280°C, these speciality polymers can evolve low concentrations of fumes.
  • If overheated, more extensive decomposition may occur due to exposure of overheated polymers to atmospheric oxygen.
  • Adequate local ventilation should be provided to remove the fumes from the work area.

Packaging Information
  • BindEX speciality polymers are supplied in pre-dried form in 25 Kg (55 lbs) PE lined, HD woven sack-laminated paper bags and 750 Kg (1650 lbs) FIBC’s.
  • They should be stored in cool and dry place.

Storage & Handling

Storage and Handling Procedures
  • BindEX E-189 is mildly hygroscopic and should be stored in a dry, cool and well-ventilated area.
  • It is supplied in pre-dried moisture proof bags and thus no need to dry prior to processing.
  • In case of open bags, it is recommended that prior to processing, the requisite quantity of material to be used should be dried in a hopper dryer or oven at 80-90°C for about 2 hours for obtaining best results.
