Westlake ELEVATE™ EF529AA is an ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer with 18.5% VA. EF529AA does not contain slip or antiblock, and is designed for blown and cast films requiring excellent optics and low heat seal initiation. High melt strength makes EF529AA an excellent choice for profile extrusions, molding, and foaming applications requiring medium VA content.

Application/Uses:
Flexible packaging films
Peelable seals, adhesive layers
Injection and blow molding
Profile extrusions, tubing, wire & cable
