Product Highlights
  • Used as top layer of laminates in order to provide the functions of heat sealability onto various substrates like PP, PS, PET and PVC, and easy opening by interfacial peeling.
  • Easily processed using the technologies of coextrusion coating, cast film coextrusion, blown film coextrusion or sheet coextrusion, to produce multilayers that can be used as lids, directly or after lamination with other films.

Technical Details & Test Data

Processing Details
  • LOTRYL® BESTPEEL 2407 can be used as a peelable heat seal layer in many kinds of lid constructions, based on aluminium foil, plastic films, paper, or a combination of them.
  • Structure examples:
  • Reverse printed bi-oriented film / adhesive / LDPE / BESTPEEL 2407
  • Aluminium / adhesive / LDPE / BESTPEEL 2407
  • Such constructions are heat sealable onto PP, PS, APET, and PVC.
  • Sealing strength is dependent on factors related to the different materials involved (heat conductivity, thicknesses) and technological parameters like shape of the sealing tools, actual pressure, and time.
  • As general recommendations, flat sealing bars and moderate pressure should be preferred for better results and less squeezing of the sealing layer.
  • Sealing temperature should be in the range from 160-180°C to 220-240°C, depending on heat conductivity of the whole structure and on contact time.
