- Product Highlights
- Trapylen® 113 X is a chemically modified low chlorinated polypropylene with outstanding affinity to polyolefinic plastics such as PP, PP/EPDM-blends and, with limitations to adhesion strength, to PE.
- Compared to other modified chlorinated types it has a higher molecular weight and a narrow molecular weight distribution.
- Due to reduced content of maleic anhydride this product has good compatibilitiy properties with other binder resins.

- Product Uses
- Trapylen® 113 X is used either as a straight primer or as an adhesion promoter for base coats and pigmented primers. Its principal use is in paintings/coatings for molded parts and sealing profiles in the automotive industry, such as bumpers, side panels and door seals.
- Trapylen® 113 X can also be used in adhesives and flocking agents for door seals.
- Trapylen® 113 X is used in industrial applications where PP based plastics are chemically pretreated.
- Product Applications
- Using TRAPYLEN® 113 as a primer by diluting the resin solution with xylene to 5% solids.
- Trapylen® 113 X primer can be applied by spraying, dipping, brushing or printing.
- Drying conditions: 30 s at 80 °C, residual quantity of resin about 3 - 4 g/m².
- When using TRAPYLEN®113 X as adhesion promoter in base coats/pigmented primers, the compatibility of the system must be checked.
- The resulting base coat can be applied by spraying, dipping, brushing or printing if the system allows it.
