New Heat Seal Coating for Bonding Plastic Films, Papers and Metal Foils
Introduced by Aqua Based Technologies
Northvale, NJ — Aqualene®1190, a new water-based heat sealable or heat activated coating, for a wide range of treated and non-treated plastic films, such as polypropylene (PP), polyester (PET), vinyl (PVC), paper, paperboard, and aluminum foil has been introduced by Aqua Based Technologies, a division of ADM Tronics Unlimited, Inc. This heat-seal coating technology is suitable for a wide range of packaging applications where heat sealed or heat activated combinations are required.
Aqualene®1190 was designed to be applied by flexographic presses and other roller coating applicators used in both web and sheet-fed production equipment. Heat sealing or heat activation is achieved at only 210° - 230°F (98°-110°C) allowing for use in a wide range of packaging structures.
Aqualene®1190 is completely water-based, containing no volatile organic compounds (VOC-free) or ozone depleting ingredients, making it environmentally safe, without requiring emission controls or safety procedures as are necessary for competitive, hazardous, solvent-based coatings. It is easy to clean up without the use of caustic or hazardous cleaning products.
