EcoSol® Water soluble packaging solution
DESCRIPTION
EcoSol is a water soluble, biodegradable, polyvinylalcohol (PVOH) film ideally suited for many packaging applications. Water soluble PVOH bags, sachets, or pouches created from this film provide a convenient, safe, and economical delivery system for a wide range of products; including detergents and cleaners, degreasers,
concrete additives, pigments, biocides, water-treatment
products, agricultural products, and others.
EcoSol film has excellent organic solvent resistance, which
allows EcoSol pouches and bags to be used not only for
dry powders, but also for liquid products.
EcoSol offers very good mechanical properties: tensile
strength, tear strength, puncture resistance. These
properties allow EcoSol to be used in a wide variety of
rigorous applications.
EcoSol expands Cortec’s line of biodegradable
materials: after a few minutes of immersion at the
specified temperature, EcoSol dissolves in water leaving
a harmless, non-toxic, aqueous solution of polyvinyl
alcohol. Once the liquid solution of PVOH comes into
contact with common microorganisms, such as those
found in water-treatment plants, conversion to carbon
dioxide and water takes place within about 30 days.
PACKAGING & STORAGE
EcoSol is packaged in barrier film. Keep in dry storage
area at 20-22°C (68-72°F).
Shelf life of the product is 2
years, if barrier film is kept intact.
