After being applied, flexible plastic coatings and thermoplastics do not get harder. These coatings become softer after they are heated to their melting temperatures. even years later.
They keep their flexibility for the duration of the coating’s useful life.In order to assess a coating’s elongation and crack resistance, flexibility tests are performed.
The flexibility of coatings is assessed using bend and impact tests. The deformation brought on by bending and impact is measured by these tests.
The sit-and-reach test, which evaluates low-back and hamstring flexibility, the trunk lift (which measures both flexibility and muscle fitness), the shoulder stretch (also known as the zipper), and other variations of these tests have all been employed.
The Global Flexible coatings market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
New line of heat sealable coatings without chlorine is introduced by Flint Group Flexible Packaging in Europe.
Leading manufacturer of print consumables to the global packaging market, Flint Group Packaging Inks, has unveiled its new NexisCode line of heat sealable coatings without chlorine.
The new portfolio was introduced in support of its overall sustainability vision, which is to “support packaging markets with responsibly built products and sustainable solutions designed for circular economies.”
It is designed for a variety of film, paper, and aluminium packaging applications and is based on a number of binder technologies to ensure suitability regardless of the substrate used.
The latest mono-material package structures created for today’s recycling infrastructure can be solved by the chlorine-free heat sealable coating range, which satisfies all technical and legal criteria.
Due to worries about polyvinyl chloride’s effects on both the environment and the capacity of packaging to be recycled, several brands and corporations are working to get rid of it from their products.
The high processing temperature during mechanical recycling of PVC in today’s typical recycling stream has the potential to degrade the resin into smaller chlorinated components, which could affect the quality of the recyclate produced.
Additionally, the new line of flexible packaging from Flint Group provides printing process flexibility.
It is available in both peelable and non-peelable forms for tear performance on a wide range of packaging substrates, and it is suited for rotogravure, flexographic, and coating applications.
