AddNox TL™
Tie Resin Extrusion Coating Lamination
Product Description
AddNox TL™ is a Maleic anhydride grafted polymer designed to provide reliable bonding strength in metallized structures during extrusion lamination/coating processes. It can be used as a modifier for PE in blends comprising approximately 20–40% AddNox TL™ and 80–60% LDPE to enhance foil adhesion properties. The level of adhesion improvement depends on processing conditions. AddNox TL™ is also designed to provide improved foil adhesion when processed under the correct conditions.

Key Benefits
Strong adhesion between PET/M-BOPP, BOPP/M-BOPP, PET/M-PET, and aluminum
Durable bond strength — the bond value increases after full crystallization and remains constant for a long period of time
Available in multiple grades for extrusion coating and tube lamination
Food contact safe across key global regulatory standards (RoHS, EU, FDA)
Applications
Extrusion coating lamination — tube laminates, pet food packaging, chips packaging, liquid packaging, and biscuit packaging
Barrier and composite lamination structures combining PET/BOPP with PE
Extrusion lamination in tube laminate on tandem lines
Tie Resin- mPE - Blown Process
Product Description
AddNox TL™ resins are functionalized polyolefins specifically engineered to act as tie layers in multilayer structures. They bond otherwise incompatible substrates — polyolefins, polyamides, EVOH, PET, and metals — by forming strong intermolecular bonds activated under heat. This compatibility enables manufacturers to combine gas barrier resins with moisture barrier resins in a single multilayer structure, resulting in packaging with enhanced durability, structural integrity, and barrier performance. Processable on standard co-extrusion, co-injection, and lamination lines, AddNox TL™ retains the physical, mechanical, and thermal characteristics of PE and PP.

Tie Resin — mCPP Film
Product Description
ADDNOX TL Tie Layer Resin is designed to provide reliable bonding strength in blown and cast extrusion processes for improving the metal bond of metallized CPP film laminates. The resin contains a suitable amount of grafted maleic anhydride functionality. ADDNOX TL CP resin can be used either in its pure form or blended with other polyolefins. This resin can be processed using different co-extrusion technologies, including cast film and blown film.
