Product Data and Technical Information
| Name | Polybutene-1 |
| Grade | PB 0110M |
| Resin type | Polybutene-1 |
| Description | Polybutene-1 grade PB 0110M is a semi-crystalline homopolymer, which is used where creep, environmental stress crack resistance and elevated temperature performance are key requirements. This polymer is highly compatible with polypropylene due to its similar molecular structure. It can be used to improve mechanical properties at elevated temperatures. It is less compatible in blends with polyethylene but it is still easily dispersible. It forms a 2-phase structure which is the basis of seal peel technology for easy-opening packaging applications. Its relatively slow kinetics of crystallization allow for an excellent wetting behavior. Its highly shear-sensitive flow behavior means that it remains easily dispersible also in even more incompatible polymers like thermoplastic elastomers. Foodlaw compliance information about this product can be found in separate product documentation. |
