Applications

Alkadyne MDF169 has been designed for extrusion into a full range of non-standard pipe products. Alkadyne MDF169 is not designed for use in pipes compliant to AS/NZS 4130. Addition of a UV stabilizer should be considered where the intended application involves intermittent to extended exposure to sunlight. Suitability for use in any application should be determined by appropriate performance testing.
