5-LAYER COEXTRUSION

5-layer PE tubes and the EVOH barrier layer

A 5-layer coextruded PE tube forms multiple functional layers in one continuous extrusion. EVOH is not a separate product; it is a barrier material positioned in the middle when the formula and protection requirements call for it.

  1. Outer PE layerOuter layer for printing and appearance
  2. Adhesive layerSupports bonding between PE and the barrier layer
  3. EVOH barrier layerUsed to reduce permeation of oxygen, gases, and aroma components
  4. Adhesive layerSupports bonding between the barrier and inner PE layers
  5. Inner PE layerInner layer in contact with the product

This is a general five-layer description. The actual structure requires a compatibility review for the intended formula.
