Selenis AKOLYT KM 900 Copolyester for Film Extrusion
Categories:	Polymer; Film; Thermoplastic; Polyester, TP
Material Notes:	Selenis Akolyt KM 900 copolyester has been specifically developed for the extrusion of technical films for furniture lamination, graphics arts, and the card film industry. Films made from Selenis Akolyt KM 900 allow excellent decorative capability, permitting unlimited design freedom and full personalization of the final application. Selenis Akolyt KM 900 grade allows variety of finishes to films, such as embossing techniques and glossy or leather-like surfaces. The exceptional clarity of films produced from Selenis Akolyt KM 900 allow reverse printing technique, enhancing printing optics whilst maximizing artwork protection. Elongation of films produced from Selenis Akolyt KM 900 permit thermoformed deep drawing, at the same time as its relatively low Tg grants energy cost savings while guaranteeing perfect adhesion to the substrates. Proven chemical resistance against common household detergents makes Selenis Akolyt KM 900 the perfect choice for films that will resist everyday weathering. Information provided by Selenis.
