Properties
  • The structure of Lotrène LA0710 allows it to be used for thin gage coating at very high speeds onto various substrates.
  • Lotrène LA0710 has good mechanical properties, low neck-in and excellent heat sealability. It exhibits also a good adhesion to both porous and non-porous substrates.

Applications & Uses

Plastics & Elastomers Processing Methods
Processing
  • Lotrène LAO710 can be easily processed on all standard extrusion coating machines. However, in order to obtain the best uniform thickness and width, it is advisable to use an extruder with an L/D ratio at least 20:1, the melt temperature is suggested to be in the range of 330-280 °C.
  • The output depends on the nature of the substrate, the thickness of the coating and the temperature of the material.
