COMPATIBILIZERS AND
COUPLING AGENTS
PE, PP or elastomer-based, they improve adhesion between two materials with different chemical properties, such as an inorganic material (e.g., mineral fillers, glass fibre, wood flour, etc.) and the organic polymer matrix.

Coesive® F30 (t) Tie Layer and Compatibilizer in one single product
In recent years, following market trends, we have been involved by customers in projects aimed at improving the recyclability of multilayer barrier structures containing Polyamide (PA) and Ethylene Vinil Alcohol (EVOH). Maleic anhydride grafted products are indeed used in these structures as tie layers to bond different polymers and as compatibilizer to improve recyclability.
Abbiamo recentemente completato un importante studio, in collaborazione con UBE Nylon, per ottenere con successo una certificazione da parte di Association of Plastic Recyclers (APR) per una struttura barriera We recently completed an important study in collaboration with UBE Nylon to successfully achieve APR (Association of Plastic Recycler) certification for a multilayer barrier structure as fully recyclable.
Specifically, this innovative structure contains up to 25% of PA, up to 5% of EVOH with at least 5.5% of our product Coesive® F30 (t), which is used with the dual function of concentrate tie layer (TL) and compatibilizer.
In the innovative 7 layers structure, reported below, we used our product directly in the layers of the adhesives (TL).
