| Product Description |
|
A flexible plastic designed for film extrusion and extrusion coating. Ecoflex® F BX 7011 comes
closer than any other biodegradable plastic to the processing properties of LDPE and LLDPE.
Blown film extrusion is a particular area where Ecoflex® F shows well-balanced processing
properties, and the resin can also be used in extrusion coating applications. Ecoflex F
requires no predrying prior to extrusion. Antiblock and Slip additives are recommended and
are available from BASF.
|
| Applications |
|
Ecoflex® F BX 7011 can be used for applications such as compost bags, trash bags, carrier bags,
bags for fruits and vegetables, general packaging films, agricultural films, and laminating
films for trays made from natural materials.
