Anti-fog for coextruded and laminated films

Einar® 611 is a specialised, highly efficient anti-fog chemistry. It is ideally suited for demanding applications in coextruded and laminated packaging films where the anti-fog is often added to a very thin section of the entire film.

Einar® 611 provides fast and long term anti-fog performance and has proven to work well in cold fog applications at very low temperatures. It has high extraction resistance in the polymer where it is incorporated and therefore is very good at maintaining its high efficiency through a lamination process. The recommended loading level for most applications is 0.2 - 0.4%.

Anti-fog for hot fog applications

In hot fog applications it can be difficult to achieve a high performance as well as a prolonged effect. Einar® 611 is the ideal solution for PE films in applications such as hot packaged foods where it lowers the surface tension of the surface, causing the water droplets to spread into a transparent film.

Anti-fog for food packaging applications

Einar® 211 is an excellent performer in many conventional food packaging applications where the objective is to obtain a good and reliable performance in either a cold- or hot fog application. Einar® 211 works well in both monolayer and coextruded film and will be a fast-acting anti-fog, producing clear and transparent film for an extended period of time.

The recommended loading level of Einar® 211 is 0.3 - 0.6% for most cold fog applications in LDPE or LLDPE film. For hot fog applications the recommended loading level is 0.2 - 0.4%.
