Applications
Atmer™ 100 is useful as an anti-fogging additive in PE and EVA food wrap films

Mode of action
Atmer™ 100 can be dispersed evenly through the polymer in the melt phase. It migrates to the surface of the polymer where it helps to lower the surface tension and subsequently reduces water droplets allowed to condense on the plastic. The water droplets are then able to spread into a continuous, uniform layer on the fabricated film.

Benefits

• Improved transparency of packaging

• Improved durability of contents

• Improved presentation of food contents

• More appealing pack for consumers

Recommended Polymers

• LDPE

• LLDPE

• EVA

Guidelines for use
Atmer™ 100 can be incorporated into resin as supplied or via masterbatch / pre-blend. Experience has shown that simple manual mixing prior to processing will normally give an acceptable dispersion though, mechanical means are preferred.
Typical addition levels are 0.5 - 4%
