NUCREL™ Acid Copolymers
NUCREL™ Acid Copolymer Resins
NUCREL™ Acid Copolymer Resins offer strong adhesion to foil and other substrates without primers. A great choice for extrusion coating, laminating, and film production, these resins offer processing ease and durability across packaging and industrial applications.
NUCREL™ Products
NUCREL™ Acid Copolymer Resins offer reliable adhesion to foil and various substrates, offering versatile performance and processability.
NUCREL™ Acid Copolymer Resins bond securely to the oxide layer on aluminum, offering durable, chemically resistant adhesion — a good choice for foil packaging exposed to mild to moderate acids and bases.
NUCREL™ Acid Copolymer Resins adhere to foil, paper, nylon, and more. It supports extrusion coating, coextrusion, and molding at lower temperatures than PE — enhancing processing flexibility across diverse packaging formats.
With excellent hot tack and seal-through-contamination performance, NUCREL™ Acid Copolymer Resins support fast, reliable heat sealing — boosting productivity in high-speed packaging lines across food, pharma, and personal care applications.
NUCREL™ Acid Copolymer Resins offer strong adhesion to metal and other substrates, with low-temperature seal-through-contamination capability — a good choice for securely packaging acidic, aseptic, and sensitive products like condiments, juices, and personal care items.
Aseptic Packaging
Strong adhesion to aluminum and film layers in acidic and non-acidic environments — a great choice for juices, dairy, and shelf-stable food and beverage packaging.
Sachets
Reliable seal integrity and adhesion for dry foods, condiments, and pharmaceuticals — supporting high-speed lines and contamination resistance.
Meat & Cheese Packaging
Secure seals and strong barrier compatibility help preserve freshness and flavor in vacuum-packed and refrigerated meat and cheese applications.
Toothpaste Tubes
Durable, flexible adhesion for multi-layer structures in toothpaste tubes—ensuring product integrity and easy dispensing under repeated use.
