Westlake EpoleneĀ® C-17P Coating Grade - Branched Medium Molecular Weight Polyethylene Polymer
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE)

Material Notes: Description: Epolene C-17P is a branched low density polyethylene powder with a relatively high melt point and viscosity compared to other Epolene C-type Polymers. It is useful to modify paraffin wax to improve the blend viscosity, grease resistance, blocking temperature, scuff resistance, and gloss. Epolene C-17P commonly replaces granular LLDPE as the base polymer in color concentrates because it's easier to process and has higher output rates. Epolene C-17P has good high temperature stability, low color, low temperature flexibility, and excellent compatibility with various tackifying resins.
    Key Attributes:
  • Enhances paraffin wax coating properties like gloss, grease resistance, and MVTR
  • Excellent thermal stability
  • Low color
  • Medium molecular weight
  • Useful in color concentrates
    Application/Uses:
  • Hot Melt Adhesives
  • Packaging
  • Solvent borne Adhesives
  • Wax Modification
