North Kingstown, RI – New 45-gauge Torayfan PC-2, a high barrier metallized OPP film from Toray Plastics (America), Inc., provides exceptional metal adhesion and high yield economics for packaging laminations. Typical applications include multi-layer laminations for liquid pouches and stand-up pouches, as well as cold seal laminations.

The newest addition to Toray’s growing “PC series”, PC-2 is suited for both extrusion and adhesive laminations. Additionally, PC-2 is designed for converting on both sides. This barrier material may be surface printed, buried in lamination, extrusion-coated, or used for strong cold seal adhesion. Metal adhesion values exceed 400 g/inch, and cold seal bonding is excellent with both natural and synthetic cohesive. Furthermore, PC-2 barrier properties lead the industry with an average MVTR of.009g/100in2/day, and OTR of 1.2 cc’s/100in2/day.

In addition to high performance, PC-2 delivers high value. With a yield of 68,200 square inches per pound, this product offers high yield economics to remain competitive with other substrates like aluminum foil or metallized PET films.
