Dow AFFINITY EG 8100G Impact Modifier

AFFINITY™ EG 8100G is an ethylene-octene copolymer polyolefin plastomer (POP) from Dow, made via INSITE™ Technology. It offers high flexibility, elastic recovery, and clarity, usable in monolayer films or blended with other polyolefins to enhance clarity, sealability, and toughness, while meeting global food contact safety standards.

Features Of Dow AFFINITY EG 8100G Impact Modifier

  1. High flexibility and elastic recovery, significantly improving impact resistance of PP and PE blends

  2. High clarity and breathability, with excellent O₂ and CO₂ transmission rates for breathable packaging applications

  3. Excellent low-temperature sealability, with a low heat-seal initiation temperature to boost packaging efficiency and reduce seal shrinkage

  4. Superior polyolefin compatibility, usable in monolayer or coextruded films to optimize clarity and toughness of film structures

  5. Free of slip agents and processing aids, with a pure formulation compliant with U.S. FDA, Canadian HPFB, and EU food contact standards

Typical Applications Of Dow AFFINITY EG 8100G Impact Modifier

  1. Food packaging: Used as a heat-seal layer in multi-layer films or as a monolayer, enhancing clarity, sealability, and impact resistance for breathable packaging of fresh produce and baked goods

  2. Breathable films: For fruit/vegetable preservation bags and medical breathable dressings, maintaining freshness and skin dryness via high gas transmission rates

  3. Polyolefin blending modification: Blended with PP/PE to improve impact resistance and flexibility of films and containers for industrial packaging and durable goods

  4. Hygiene products: As a breathable backsheet in diapers and sanitary napkins, balancing elasticity, breathability, and reliable heat sealing

  5. Composite flexible packaging: Coextruded with PET, PA, etc., to optimize seal strength and puncture resistance of composite films
