Synopsis
Today’s resin technology and new chemistry options have enabled the development of peelable heat sealants that can better meet today’s performance and economic challenges. A few of the technologies that have seen significant advancement are: peelable polyolefin sealants that provide a consistent seal strength virtually unaffected by temperature, pressure, dwell, and age; peelable polypropylene sealants for retort applications that provide improved processing and performance characteristics; and peelable polyester sealants for applications requiring chemical and/or temperature resistance.
