Arkema Lacovyl® GA 9028 Vinyl Copolymer  (discontinued **)
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Vinyl (PVC); Polyvinyl Chloride - Polyvinyl Acetate Copolymer

Material Notes: LACOVYL GA 9028 is a copolymer of vinyl chloride and vinyl acetate produced by suspension polymerization process. It may be used by itself or blended with a PVC homopolymer of similar molecular weight.

Its characteristics are :

  • Vinyl acetate content:10.5%. Viscosity index (ISO 1628-2):85 ml/g,(K value:59). Apparent density (ISO 60):0.59 g/ml.
  • ease of fusion.
  • good elongation with heat.
  • high level of fluidity in the molten state.

Facilitating the extrusion or calendering of films or rigid sheets and improving their suitability for thermoforming. It is furthermore perfectly compatible with the additives used to improve impact resistance. LACOVYL GA 9028 has a very good base color and excellent thermal stability with the stabilizers currently used, especially with those suitable for the manufacture of food containers.

* RECOMMENDED APPLICATIONS

  • Calendering or extrusion of rigid sheets and films for:
  • packaging or display packs made by thermoforming
  • boxes
  • stationary - credit cards, playing cards - computer disc and video-cassettes holders
  • sleeves for bottles
  • Records molding (addition resin).
