Soarnol® ET3803 Ethylene Vinyl Alcohol Copolymer
Subcategory: Ethylene Vinyl Alcohol; Thermoplastic
Key Words: EVOH
Material Notes: Medium ethylene content. Suitable for packaging a wet product in a wet environment. Preferred for use in forming webs for meat and cheese packaging. Ethylene content 38 mol%. Volatile matter 0.3%. The gas barrier property of Soarnol is about forty times better than that of nylon, therefore, Soarnol allows design of lower cost packages by using a thin gas barrier layer without loss of shelf life. Soarnol ET3803 with intermediate melt flow index is one of the standard grade of Soarnol, its ethylene content is 38 mol%. Since Soarnol ET3803 has both excellent gas barrier property and water resistance, this resin is suited for coextruded film, coextruded sheet and coextrusion coating. This resin can also be used in thermoforming and shrink packaging. Information provided by Soarus, LLC. In the United States SOARNOL is produced by Noltex, L.L.C., an affiliate of Nippon Gohsei.
