SEBS-based compound introduced for production of elastic films / Softness and transparency / Suitable for food contact
Global independent compounder SO.F.TER (Forli / Italy; www.softergroup.com) has introduced a styrene-ethylene-butadiene-styrene (SEBS)-based compound for the production of elastic films possessing improved softness and transparency, optimal elastic recovery and high tear resistance.
The material, “Laprene” 83FE00864, can be processed by blown film extrusion into an extremely thin sheet, with thickness up to 50 microns. Additionally, it can be co-extruded with other polyolefins such as PE for the production of multi-layer films.
It is suitable for contact with a wide range of food products and is free of hazardous substances, the company said. Its softness makes it particularly comfortable and ideal for the production of personal hygiene products, such as senior and baby diapers, and for other applications in the paramedical sector.
