ISTOTROPIC
FILM
This
IT type polyester film is a transparent film. This film
shows excellent isotropic characteristics, that is, high and balanced
mechanical properties and low thermal shrinkage in all directions.
The film is best suited for lidding application. This film is also
available with corona or chemical treatment on one side.
ITCI
- corona wound–in
ITCO - corona wound-out
IT
LI - chemical wound–in
IT LO - chemical wound-out
