ELVALOY™ AC 1218 Acrylate Copolymer

ELVALOY™ AC 1218 Acrylate Copolymer by Dow acts as a compatibilizer. It is a copolymer of ethylene and methyl acrylate. It is recommended for PET modification, plastic compounding, consumer- and food packaging applications. It offers higher thermal stability at similar comonomer content and no corrosive by-products versus EVA. It is easily processed on standard equipment used for low density polyethylene.

• It provides compatibility with PE recycling streams, broad compatibility with polar and non-polar resins.
• It exhibits enhanced dispersion and distribution of functional fillers.
• It is suitable for processing by coextrusion, blown- and cast film extrusion.
• ELVALOY™ AC 1218 Acrylate Copolymer complies with TSCA, EU Directive 2011/65/EU (RoHS), EU Directive 2012/19/EU (WEEE) and FDA 21 CFR 177.1340(a).
