HSL-1255 Heat Seal Lacquer
TECHNICAL DATA SHEET
Solvent-based heat seal lacquer developed for one-step direct coating on aluminum, PET, PP, and paper films. Suitable for sealing aluminum, PET, PS, PP, PVC, and PLA cups. HSL-1255-AT is primarily used in the packaging of water cups, soft drinks, and dairy products.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Stellar HSL-1255-AT is a solvent-based heat seal lacquer made from special thermoplastic polymers and additives. This product is a heat-sealable pressure-sensitive lacquer that can be applied directly to aluminum, PET, PP, and paper surfaces in a one-step process. It features a very low migration rate and is also suitable for a wide range of other applications.

Sealing values N/15mm
AL / APET → N/15 mm: 10 (Brugger-HSG C 200°C, 1 sec, 460 N, Tolerance ±2)
AL / PS → N/15 mm: 12 (Brugger-HSG C 200°C, 1 sec, 460 N, Tolerance ±2)
AL / PP → N/15 mm: 10 (Brugger-HSG C 200°C, 1 sec, 460 N, Tolerance ±2)
PET / PS → N/15 mm: 9 (Brugger-HSG C 200°C, 1 sec, 460 N, Tolerance ±2)
PET / PP → N/15 mm: 9 (Brugger-HSG C 200°C, 1 sec, 460 N, Tolerance ±2)
The specified values apply at 200 °C. Adhesion decreases at lower temperatures.
The effective sealing range is between 180 °C and 205 °C.
Paper must be NC-primed.
