Technical Details & Test Data

Processing Details

LOTRYL® 20MA08 can be processed with standard polyolefin extrusion equipment up to 300°C and it is recommended to purge the equipment after a run is completed. If LOTRYL® 20MA08 is used pure for instance with blown or cast film technology, standard temperature settings could be:

Zone 1 Zone 2 Zone 3 Zone 4 Fittings-Channels Die
150 - 170°C 170°C 170°C 170°C 170°C 170°C

Final profile and settings depend on the line and multilayer structure being run.
