Maleic Anhydride Grafted Polymer (MAH-g): EPOLENE®

Product Availability Product Description
EPOLENE® C-16 Asia Pacific
EPOLENE® C-16 is a branched low-density polyethylene modified with maleic anhydride. It is useful as a base polymer for adhesives and coatings, color concentrate dispersions, and applications requiring compatibility with polyamide. Coatings produced with EPOLENE® C-16 polymer exhibit high gloss, low moisture vapor transmission rates, grease resistance, and good heat-seal ability. In hot melt adhesives, the maleic anhydride modification allows for improved adhesion, greater filler tolerance, and broader adhesive capabilities. Attributes: - Enhances paraffin wax coating properties like gloss, grease resistance, and MVTR - Excellent thermal stability - Maleic anhydride grafted PE provides functionality/adhesion to substrate Applications: - Automotive carpet backing - Compounding - Hot melt adhesives - Wax modification
EPOLENE® C-16P Asia Pacific
EPOLENE® C-16P is a branched low-density polyethylene modified with maleic anhydride.

EPOLENE® C-26 Asia Pacific
EPOLENE ® C-26 is a maleic anhydride grafted polyethylene coupling agent for polyolefin (PE, PP etc.) composites. The polar functionality and molecular weight are optimized to provide balanced attraction between polyolefin and reinforcements / fillers like glass, wood, minerals, and metals. EPOLENE ® C-26 polymers are products of Westlake Chemical Corporation and are protected under one or more of the following U.S. patents: 5,955,547 and 6,046,279; and their foreign equivalents. Attributes: - Balances attraction between polar filler / reinforcements and non-polar polymers - Coupling agent for PE composites - Maleic anhydride grafted polyethylene (PE) Applications: - Automotive - Building and construction - Rubber and plastic modification - Compounding
EPOLENE® E-43 Asia Pacific
EPOLENE® E-43 is a chemically modified polypropylene used as a coupling agent for polypropylene composites and for providing slip resistance in floor finish emulsions. Because of the polarity and anhydride functionality, EPOLENE® E-43 polymer is useful for laminating, as a compatibilizer for PP blends with nylon or EVOH, and for enhancing the strength of composites that utilize reinforcements / fillers such as glass, talc, and calcium carbonate. Attributes: - Coupling agent and compatibilizer for PP composites - Excellent pigment dispersion aid - Provides slip resistance in floor polish - Maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (PP) - High level of functionality Applications: - Compounding - Emulsions - Hot melt adhesives
