Constituents added to resins, such
as colorants and additives, must be adapted to
obtain a final article compliant with prescribed
standards such as EN13432 for Packaging
Applications and EN17033 for Agriculture Mulch
Films.
A dedicated selection of aid processes, all
following the requirements of Annex A of
EN13432, including slip agents, anti-block and
metal release additives, can help reduce issues
during the film extrusion and harmonize the
entire process.

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF SELECTED VERSAFLEX PF TACK LAYER FORMULATIONS
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Versaflex™ PF formulations are specially
developed for the manufacture of co-extruded
surface protective films that apply easily, maintain
tack with minimal build, peel smoothly and
remove completely with little-to-no residue or
ghosting.
BENEFITS OF VERSAFLEX PF FOR
SURFACE PROTECTIVE FILMS:
• Customizable tack
• Single-step manufacturing process (co-
extrusion)
• Low volatile organic compound (VOC)
emissions during manufacturing
• Eliminates secondary coating and drying
operations
• Eliminates hazardous liquid chemicals
compared to solvent systems
• Reduces converting costs versus coating
• Reduces energy consumption
MARKETS AND APPLICATIONS
Versaflex PF formulations, customizable
based on desired level of tack, are co-extruded
with protective films to provide just the right
amount of protection during the fabrication,
assembly, shipment, storage and installation of
finished goods in many industries and end-use
applications including:
• Optical films and display panels for consumer
electronics
• Home appliances
• Construction and building materials
• Furniture and cabinetry
• Automotive and other transportation

As we discussed on our last earnings call, we anticipated a small reduction in adjusted EPS in the fourth quarter attributable to a number of factors but primarily due to weaker results in DSS and lower demand for oil and gas related applications," Mr.
These include new thermoset and thermoplastic composites, which represent the next frontier in lightweighting technology, thermoplastic elastomer adhesives and protective films.
While work remains to improve and grow our DSS segment, our businesses are well positioned for growth, and we are focused on achieving our 2020 Platinum Vision.

Capillary film can be used to achieve greater thickness with one pass.
Be sure to review the product bulletin prior to testing and that you’re getting 320F at the ink film on the shirt when fusing in your dryer.
Then check the ink film temperature through the dryer with a thermo probe or a temperature strip.
