Typical Applications
Foam and Footwear
Crosslinked and non-crosslinked foam systems selected for softness, resilience and density.
Film
Flexible film and blending applications requiring softness, sealing and low-temperature properties.
Wire and Cable
Compounds selected according to flexibility, filler loading and electrical requirements.
Hot-Melt Adhesives
Adhesive formulations where VA content, viscosity and compatibility are central.
Grade Selection Factors
The following factors are application references, not guaranteed specifications. Final selection must be confirmed using the current producer TDS, COA and customer requirements.
| Selection Item | What to Confirm |
|---|---|
| Vinyl acetate content | A key factor affecting softness, polarity, sealing and compatibility. |
| Melt flow | Match foam, film, compounding or adhesive process. |
| Formulation | State fillers, crosslinking, tackifier or blend components. |
| Compliance | Confirm application-specific regulatory or technical requirements. |
Information Needed for Quotation
Application, current grade, VA content, MFI, density, formulation, color, compliance, quantity and destination port.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is VA content important?
It changes flexibility, polarity, sealing and compatibility, so application requirements must be clear.
Can one EVA grade be used for foam and hot melt?
Usually not. Melt flow and VA requirements can be very different.
Can you match an EVA grade by datasheet?
Yes. Send VA content, MFI, application and current grade.
