Dow Appeel® 20D855 Ethylene Acrylate
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Ethylene Acrylic Acid

Material Notes: DuPont™ Appeel 20D855 is a modified ethylene acrylate resin designed to function as a sealing layer for lidding applications. It is most often suggested to provide peelable seals over a broad temperature range to a number of container materials including PET, PVC, PS and PP. Appeel 20D855 is available in pellet form for use in conventional extrusion and coextrusion equipment designed to process polyethylene resins.

Appeel® 20D855 resin complies with Food and Drug Administration Regulation 21 FDA Status Information CFR 177.1340 - - Ethylene-methyl acrylate copolymer resins, subject to the limitations and requirements therein. This Regulation describes polymers that may be used in contact with food, subject to the finished food-contact article meeting the extractive limitations under the intended conditions of use, as shown in paragraph (b) of the Regulation.
