DuPont Elvax® 3174 Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate Copolymer Resin for Coextrusion, Cast Film (discontinued **)
Categories:	Polymer; Film; Thermoplastic; Ethylene Vinyl Acetate; Ethylene Vinyl Acetate Copolymer (EVA), Extrusion/Coating Grade
Material Notes:	18 wt% Vinyl Acetate. Elvax® 3174 is an extrudable ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer resin available in pellet form for use in conventional extrusion equipment designed to process polyethylene resins. Additives: Antioxidant. Applications: Elvax® 3174 is designed to provide a low temperature heat seal to itself or many other materials commonly used in flexible packaging applications. The melt properties of this resin allow it to be processed on cast film equipment over a wide range of line speeds and film thicknesses. It can also be coextruded with a variety of other polymers. Elvax® 3174 is typically used as a low-temperature seal layer in coextruded films. Information provided by DuPont Packaging Polymers. This product line/trade name was acquired by Dow, but this specific grade was discontinued prior to the acquisition.
