ZELAS™ for film extrusion

ZELAS™ reactor TPO, specialty compounds and adhesive polymers for blown-film and cast-film manufacturing in mono and co-extrusion processes.

TECHNOLOGIES

ZELAS™ product group includes:

  • High-performance, olefin-based thermoplastic elastomer (R-TPO):
    High rubber content with fine dispersion of sub-micron magnitude in a polypropylene homopolymer matrix.
  • Specialty TPE compounds


ZELAS™ R-TPO

Shows a unique property balance comprised of high heat resistance, transparency and flexibility along with high strength and excellent impact resistance - Your ideal polymer for use as multi-chamber bag film. 

Film extruded by Zelas™ R-TPO can be heat-sealed at different temperatures, resulting in weak/ peelable or permanent seal strength.
