Topas Advanced Polymers TOPAS® 9903D-10 Cyclic Olefin Copolymer (COC)

TOPAS® 9903D-10 is a very low glass transition temperature (Tg=33°C) film extrusion grade. It is designed to deliver high shrinkage at low temperatures in shrink packaging applications. It is a moderate clarity amorphous resin with high stiffness, moisture barrier, chemical resistance, thermoformability and purity for food and general purpose applications. It is used in blends in monolayer products, and alone or in blends in multilayer films. It can be used in both cast and blown film processes. The leading film applications are shrink films and labels. Key applications and attributes: Shrink films and labels: High shrink at low temperatures, low stress, toughness Food packaging: Not manufactured with BPA, phthalates, or halogens Food contact: Broad regulatory approval Storage: This grade tends to stick due to its low glass transition temperature. This is also true for parts made thereof. Chilled warehousing is recommended. Information provided by TOPAS Advanced Polymers
