Hanwha TotalEnergies EVA E181L

Hanwha TotalEnergies EVA E181L is an advanced 18% vinyl-acetate EVA copolymer engineered for high-speed T-die extrusion coating of BOPP film, kraft paper, aluminium foil, and flexible packaging. Manufactured by Hanwha TotalEnergies (South Korea) using proprietary high-pressure tubular polymerization, E181L delivers MFI 25 g/10 min, VA 18 wt%, density 0.940 g/cm³, tensile yield 125 kg/cm² (~12.3 MPa), elongation >600%, Vicat 56°C, melting point 83°C—making it the top choice for converters running high-productivity coating lines across India.

Key Functions, Features & Specs – Technical Authority

  • 18%-VA-Adhesive: 18% VA content ensures strong adhesion to BOPP, kraft paper, foil, and film substrates.
  • 25-MFI-HighSpeed: Melt index 25 g/10 min enables rapid, thin-layer extrusion at high line speeds.
  • Optical-Clear: Proprietary tubular process yields excellent optical clarity and low gel level for transparent coatings.
  • Coating-Focused: Explicitly designed for T-die extrusion coating—distinct from foam or general film EVAs.
  • Balanced-Drawability: Stable film geometry, well-balanced drawability, and neck-in for reliable production.

Detailed Applications – Where E181L Excels

Extrusion Coating for Flexible Packaging (Core)

  • BOPP film coating: For snacks, bakery, and dried goods packaging—moisture barrier, breathable, and printable.
  • Kraft paper lamination: For food wraps, burger wrappers, pizza boxes—moisture and grease resistance.
  • Aluminium foil lamination: For flexible, printable food packaging and technical laminates.
  • Multi-layer films: EVA as a heat-seal or adhesion layer in co-extruded food packaging.

Why E181L:

High MFI allows thin, uniform coatings at high speed; 18% VA ensures strong substrate adhesion; low gel level and high clarity guarantee premium film quality.

General Flexible Packaging Films

  • Stand-up pouches, gusset pouches, and laminates for non-food (cosmetics, detergents, industrial goods).
  • Technical films, agricultural films with EVA heat-seal layer.

Specialty & Technical Films

  • Tarpaulins, industrial tarps, protective films for glass, plastic, and metal.
  • Custom laminates where clarity, adhesion, and thin-film performance are critical.

Miscellaneous Coating Applications

  • Cable sheathing (select cases), film-to-substrate adhesive layers, industrial bonding.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Hanwha EVA E181L and what is it designed for?
A high-MFI (25), 18% VA EVA for T-die extrusion coating of BOPP, kraft paper, foil, and flexible food packaging—offering high speed, clarity, and adhesion.
E181L: MFI 25, for coating; E180F/E181F: MFI 2–2.5, for foam. Using the wrong grade can cause line shutdown or poor coating.
Food packaging film coatings, kraft and foil lamination, flexible packaging, technical and protective films.
25 MFI enables rapid, thin coatings; low gel level and high clarity ensure consistent, defect-free output.
Barrel: 130–240°C; Die: 230–240°C. Avoid melt temps above 260°C to preserve clarity and adhesion.
Generally compliant, but request Hanwha’s Food Contact Compliance Certificate for direct food-contact layers.
Prevents costly grade confusion (coating vs foam EVA), ensures you receive authentic E181L with full technical data, and supports reliable, high-quality production.
