Westlake specializes in ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) formulations with vinyl acetate content that has expanded up to 28%, appropriate for use in thermoplastic extrusion, film compounds and foam molding. With softness and flexibility approaching elastomeric materials, EVA has good clarity and gloss, barrier properties, low-temperature toughness, stress crack resistance and ultraviolet (UV) resistance. Applications include a wide variety of end-uses, such as flexible packaging, heat-seal layers, thermal laminations, hose and tubing, blow molded (soft touch) bottles, cap liners, and foams.
