Waterborne Acrylic Emulsion With Grease Resistance For Food Contact Barrier Packaging

Product Overview

This Waterborne Acrylic Emulsion presents as a milky white liquid, with core specifications optimized for practical application: solid content of 40±1%, pH value ranging from 7.0 to 9.0 (25oC), minimum film-forming temperature (MFFT) below 7oC, and viscosity less than 500 mPa·s (25oC, Brookfield). When stored in sealed original containers within 5~30 ℃, it maintains stability for 6 months at 20oC; freezing or exposure to temperatures above 30oC, as well as contamination by bacteria, fungi or algae, may impair its performance.

Key Features

• Excellent water repellency: Forms a protective barrier against moisture, safeguarding the integrity of coated or printed substrates.
• Fast drying speed: Shortens production cycles and improves operational efficiency, adapting to high-speed processing demands.
• Good re-dissolving ability: Facilitates ink adjustment and equipment cleanup, enhancing workflow flexibility.
• APEO-free formulation: Complies with environmental standards, reducing ecological impact and meeting regulatory requirements.
• Stable performance: Consistent specifications ensure uniform results in repeated applications.

Applications

• Paper packaging: Ideal for inks used in food packaging, beverage cartons, corrugated boxes, and other paper-based packaging. It prevents moisture penetration, preserves the contents, and maintains the packaging’s structural stability.
• Textile packaging: Suitable for printed fabric bags, protective textile wraps, and other textile packaging materials. It enhances ink adhesion and durability, keeping printed designs vivid even with frequent handling or mild moisture exposure.
• Other printing scenarios: Adaptable to various printing processes for paper and textile products, providing reliable water resistance and drying performance.
