Tackifiers for Polyolefin Film
Tackifiers for Polyolefin Film
(OP)
i want to used ldpe for the film, but there's another problem i also want it tears at 95C temperature.
It doesn't have to be so sticky, i just need it to be sticky enough for a small piece of plastic chip.
Can anyone suggest the tackifiers? and what should i do to make a lower the melting point?
Many thanks

RE: Tackifiers for Polyolefin Film
Add a plasticizer, i.e. high molecular weight solvent that will soften the PE. Examples would be hydrocarbon oils.
Or, blend in a tacky polymer like Tafmer (from Mitsui) or perhaps a Kraton product or Styroflex type SBS from BASF.
