Westlake Epolene® C-18P Coating Grade - Branched Medium Molecular Weight Polyethylene Polymer (discontinued **)
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE)
Material Notes:	Description: Epolene C-18P is a branched low density polyethylene powder modified with maleic anhydride. It is useful as a base polymer for adhesives and coatings, color concentrate dispersion, and applications requiring compatibility with polyamide. Coatings produced with Epolene C-18P exhibit high gloss, low moisture vapor transmission rates, grease resistance, and good heat seal ability. In hot melt adhesives, the maleic anhydride modification allows for improved adhesion, greater filler tolerance, broader capabilities, and improved aging properties. Key Attributes: Enhances paraffin wax coating properties like gloss, grease resistance, and MVTR Excellent thermal stability Maleic anhydride grafted PE provides functionality Medium molecular weight Useful in color concentrates Application/Uses: Automotive OEM motive refinish motive Building and Construction Hot Melt Adhesives Packaging Solvent borne Adhesives Information provided by Westlake Chemical
