Bicor™ MBH568 - Oriented Polypropylene Film

FLEXIBLE PACKAGING PRODUCT DATA SHEET Preliminary

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
