| Diofan® B 206 is a PVDC water-based dispersion designed for high speed coating process of plastic films. This new grade is recommended for food packaging applications when both good barrier properties and low sealing temperatures are needed. Applications: Barrier Coatings; Coating Applications Features: Moisture Barrier; Oxygen BarrierDiofan® B 206 is delivered in bulk or in Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBC). Bulk supplied latex should be stored in reservoirs made of suitable stainless steel, HDPE, rigid PVC or glass fiber-reinforced polyester.
- Contact of anionic Diofan® dispersion with metals like iron, zinc, aluminum and copper as well as alloys such as brass and bronze must be avoided.
- Keep the vessels tightly closed to prevent drying through evaporation. Store the product ideally between 5°C and 30°C (41 °F and 86°F) to avoid degradation. PROCESSING - DRYING
- Diofan® B 206 can be processed with different coating techniques, including reverse gravure roll and air knife coating systems.
- When coated on plastic films, Diofan® B 206 should be formulated with wax and silica in order to improve the blocking and slip properties of the finished coating.
- Diofan® coatings requires adequate drying conditions, since in general higher temperatures will contribute to better barrier properties. Information provided by Solvay Specialty Polymers. |
