According to the PET Resin Association, “Tie layer resins (TLR) are functionalized polyolefins that are produced by grafting anhydrides or acids to a polyolefin substrate in a post-reactor process. TLR are crucial for bonding dissimilar resins in multi-layer structures. For example, multi-layer packaging structures commonly include a non-polar polyolefin layer and a polar barrier resin layer, such as EVOH. A tie layer allows the polar and non-polar layers to adhere to each other. The most widely used polyolefin base materials for producing tie layer resins are linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), low density polyethylene (LDPE), high density polyethylene (HDPE), polypropylene (PP), ethyl vinyl acetate (EVA), and styrene-ethylene-butylene-styrene (SEBS).
