Multilayer Films 2005
Brussels, Belgium, 8-9 November 2005 – Conference Proceedings
Multilayer technology allows several materials to be combined to give a wide range of properties. This is particularly useful in packaging applications, where wrappings must not affect contents and at the same time protect from damage and exposure to contaminants.
New equipment is continually being developed to produce more and more layers in films. Sometimes an adhesive layer is required; material selection is a key issue. Testing and quality control are topics for debate. How do you make sure that all the layers in a multilayer film are intact, of the correct thickness and durable? Recycling is now a key legislative issue affecting many plastics industries, mixed materials can complicate this process. The conference on Multilayer Films included top experts on processing, materials, applications, testing and recycling.
This first international conference on Multilayer Films brought together the plastic films industry: converters, manufacturers, machinery developers, test houses, materials suppliers, engineers and packaging end-users to hear about the latest technology and products.
