Material Specification for Shrink Wrap Definition: Pro-Tect shrink wrap is a modern thermo plastic film formulated with both linear and low density heat sensitive resins. When heated, the shrink wrap will shrink 25% to 30% of its surface dimension. Our shrink film is manufactured to our specifications from virgin resins and fractional melt low density polyethylene resulting in uniform bi-axial shrinking and super strength. The UVI in our shrink wrap is a hindered amine to protect against film deterioration by the sun. Hindered amine protects the film by remaining within the molecular structure of the film. In addition to the fractional melt and linear low density polyethylene, our specially formulated films contain Ethyl Vinyl Acetate (EVA). Shrink film containing EVA retains more elasticity and does not become brittle when exposed to cold temperatures. Puncture resistance is greater, burn holes do not propagate and will not split easily in the machine direction when whipped by the wind. Flame Resistance: Pro-Tect Plastic's 9 mil shrink films are formulated and manufactured to satisfy the flammability requirements of the National Fire Protection Association's 701 large and small scale tests and British Standard BS 476 Part 12 ignition source G. Flammability test per ASTM E-94 for flame spread and smoke developed places this product into the class A category for interior wall and ceiling finish. Flame spread: 5, smoke development 25. Specifications and Film Properties: Pro-Tect Plastic's material conforms to the following Federal Specifications: 1.
