Knowde Enhanced TDS

Identification & Functionality

Chemical Family: Polycaprolactone (PCL),
Polyesters
Polymer Name: Polycaprolactone (PCL)
Plastics & Elastomers Functions: Resin
Technologies: Plastics
Product Families: Plastics — Engineering & Specialty Polymers
Biodegradable Polymers,
Polyesters & Copolyesters

Features & Benefits

Labeling Claims: Biodegradable
Materials Features: Excellent Compatibility,
Gas Barrier,
Good Heat Sealing Response,
Good Toughness,
High Degree of Crystallinity,
Improves Plasticity
Product Features: Excellent compatibility: It has good compatibility with common biodegradable polyester materials, and can be used as raw materials and auxiliary materials;

Low temperature plasticity: its melting point is 58-60 ℃, and it can be shaped at low temperature, and it could meet the requirements of biological activity;

Ease of coloring: It is easy to dye, giving the product a bright color;

higher crystallinity, better gas barrier of products;

Excellent toughness: it is not easy to be brittle at low temperatures, and the elongation at break is greater than 200%. It can also be used as an auxiliary material to adjust the brittleness of the main resin, such as PLA / PVA, etc;

Excellent heat-sealability: It is especially suitable for heat-sealable layers in multilayer films. its thermal sealing adhesion is high, adhesion speed is fast;

Excellent biodegradability in seawater: the degradation performance of seawater is better than that of PLA. In the composting environment, CO2 and H2O can be completely decomposed in 6-12 months.

Eco-friendly, fully biodegradable in sea water and fresh water, compostable for home and industrial.
