Bicor™ MBH568 - Oriented Polypropylene Film
FLEXIBLE PACKAGING PRODUCT DATA SHEET
Product Description
Bicor™ MBH568 is a transparent biaxially oriented polypropylene film with improved barrier to moisture and gases, coated on one side with a modified printable barrier coating, one side with a very low seal temperature (VLTS) coating. As for all MB/MBX668 products, a VLTS coating provides excellent performances on high speed HFFS machines. The printable non-heat sealable barrier coating also provides good aroma and MO barrier and is an excellent support for printing.
Key Features
- Improved moisture & gas barriers compared to PVdC coated OPP films
- Exceptional wide seal range with low seal initiation temperature (SIT)
- Good seal strength and hot-tack
- Robust performance on horizontal flowpack machines (HFFS)
- Good humidity seal retention on VLTS side
- Good aroma barrier
- Great optical properties
- Ideal support for surface printing
- Water-based coatings - non halogenated (PVdC-free)
- Improved barrier to mineral oils compared to non-barrier film 1
