Dow AFFINITY™ PL 1880 Polyolefin Plastomer
Categories: Polymer; Film; Thermoplastic; Elastomer, TPE

Material Notes: AFFINITY® PL 1880 polyolefin plastomer is an ethylene alpha-olefin resin designed for use in a variety of demanding packaging applications including high-speed, form-fill seal products. AFFINITY PL 1880 polymer offers excellent ultimate hot tack strength and low temperature seal initiation even through contamination in the package seal in addition to outstanding optics and abuse resistance. AFFINITY PL 1880 polymer has excellent compatibility with other polyolefins, allowing efficient blending and coextrusion. AFFINITY PF 1140 polymer complies with FDA regulation 21 CFR 177.1520c3.1b, which allows for its use in direct food contact applications.
