Our extrudable hot melt adhesive for resealable packaging is based on styrene-block copolymers and is applied during blown or cast film extrusion. The free flowing pellets provide high quality repeatable resealability in multilayer film structures. This reseal functionality enables shelf life extension for the contents and reduction in food waste in various applications.

As the world shifts its focus towards PFAS-free solutions, Mitsui Plastics, Inc. is proud to offer EverGlide® PA a revolutionary material suitable for a variety of different polymers. Unlike traditional fluoro-materials, EverGlide® PA uniquely provides both internal and external process aid benefits, making it the ideal alternative to fluoropolymer-based process aids. Our solution is proven to outperform traditional fluoro-materials, offering excellent melt processability, high quality film surface, reduced die-lip build up and a stable coefficient of friction over a broad emperature range. This enables film producers to achieve faster speeds on production lines, while ensuring exceptional performance.

Our oxygen scavenging system for polyester resins is an active barrier solution that provides protection form oxygen ingress enabling shelf life over 12 months in various applications. When combined with PET resin the result is high transparent visually appealing barrier packaging that can eliminate the need for multi-material oxygen barrier solutions enabling recyclability.

Our anti-blocking material is a white powder with spherical particle shape and controlled particle size. The material is a synthetic sodium calcium aluminosilicate produced by the chemical modification of synthetic zeolite. It has excellent dispersibility and a refractive index close to resin, resulting in very high clarity and low haze. It also has very low oil absorption. This anti-block is also offered in masterbatch form.

This modifier can be used to modify the initiation temperatures for film sealing. The product’s lower melting point and melting point distribution result in increased low-temperature drawing and dimensional stability. Blending this material into the core layer of films helps to achieve an improvement in heat sealability, processability, softness and optical properties (transparency and gloss). Target heat seal strength can be achieved at lower temperatures using this material, making it possible to design ultra low temperature processes, leading to cost reduction and line speed efficiency. On the flip side, for low temperature system constraints, a higher heat seal can be achieved through use of this material.

Slip agent is used in various applications to modify the coefficient of friction. We offer several options, including convenient masterbatch forms in a wide variety of carrier resins. This technology allows for unique benefits such as improved polymer processability, nonmigratory behavior, stable COF over broad temperature ranges and processing conditions, and increased scratch and mar resistance. We have both traditional amide-based products as well as siloxane-based materials. Traditional film migratory additives have been overdesigned for lower than necessary COF due to COF changes with temperature and speed. However, this does not occur with our product, so films can be designed correctly for the end application.

Our acid scavenger offerings range from different synthetic hydrotalcites to metallic soaps, including regular type hydrotalcite as well as dehydrated hydrotalcite. Our regular-type hydrotalcite is commonly used in polyolefin production. Our dehydrated hydrotalcite is used in production where higher processing temperature is needed. We also offer a zinc-type hydrotalcite. Our metallic soaps include calcium stearate, zinc stearate and magnesium stearate.

Our PET based film is able to achieve high barrier using Aluminum Oxide and Silica Oxdie coating technology. This creates a transparent high-barrier film that uses recycled materials, reduces CO2 emissions by 17% and reduces the use of petroleum-based resources. This material prevents permeation of gases, including water vapor and oxygen.
