IOTEK
8020 is a sodium ionomer, which offers
- a well balanced combination of stiffness, processability and flex-life
properties
- outstanding clarity and gloss
- excellent mould flow properties.
It is typically used for sheet production and forinjection molding of
stiff, high clarity parts.
It's excellent melt strength and toughness make the grade also useful
for thermoforming and deep draw applications.
Melt temperature : 200 - 230 °C
Processing conditions :
IOTEK 8020 can be processed on equip-ment normally used for LDPE.
Melt temperature : 200 - 230 °C |
Warning:
To minimize corrosion risk, all exposed metal surfaces in the extruder
and die should be made from corrosion resistant metals or nickel/chrome
plated.
Iotek 8020 should be fed into the extruder after LDPE of a similar or
higher melt index. Machines should always be completely purged with LDPE
or a suitable cleaning compound before shutdown.
Cation containing polymers pick up moisture from the atmosphere if
exposed for prolonged periods. It is therefore recommended to
re-seal tightly the package after each production run |
