NUCREL™ AE  is an ethylene-methacrylic acid- acrylate terpolymer and promoting adhesion enhancer and available for use in conventional extrusion coating, coextrusion coating, and extrusion laminating equipment designed to process polyethylene resins. It can be used in as a blend of approximate 20 to 30% Nucrel™ with 80 to 70% LDPE for enhancement of foil adhesion properties.

Provides :

  • Designed for blending into LDPE to enhance the adhesion of LDPE to foil in extrusion coating.
  • Allows both foil adhesion improvement and can be used to increase line speeds or productivity.
  • Pellets are blended with LDPE by the converter at 20 -30% Nucrel®AE
  • Processing condition remains similar to conventional LDPE

Application :

  • Aluminum/PE composites
  • Laminated foil or metalized with PE film
  • PE compound for cap liner application


Polymer Type: Ethylene-methacrylic acid- acrylate terpolymer
