Message
Westlake EF545AW resin is a 4.0% VA ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer with high antiblock designed for stretch and other film applications where cold temperature performance and low C.O.F. are needed. This grade provides reasonable optics even with the high antiblock loading necessary to achieve the low C.O.F. Excellent cold temperature performance, toughness, and resistance to load deformation make EF545AW a wise selection for wrapping pallets stored in food freezers and other cold environments.

Application/Uses:
Pallet wrap stretch film
Food packaging stretch film
