The key advantage of co-extrusion is that each material retains its individual properties within the final structure. As a result, it becomes possible to combine different functional characteristics, such as strength, barrier performance, adhesion or processability, within a single product. Depending on the application, co-extruded structures can therefore be engineered to meet highly specific performance requirements. To achieve optimal results, additives and specialty compounds such as chain extenders are often incorporated into the process.
