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.
