METALEN PE-11K is a composition based on black HDPE. METALEN PE-11K has high processability, low shrinkage and temperature stability during processing. The main advantage of the material is a very high resistance to cracking under the environmental influence and high impact strength. In terms of resistance to photo-oxidative and thermal aging, and in terms of resistance to cracking under load, the composition surpasses the brand 273-81K. The compound has high physical and mechanical properties in tension and bending.
