Product Characterestics

Its high molecular weight. bimodal molecular wetght distnbuuon and optimum density results in films with high strength, high ngldlty and
excellent processabillty. Tubular films of bEE-4909-AAH resm are recommended for tugh strength grocery sacks. shopping bags and other thin film applications. The combination of strength,toughness and drawdown makes this restn Ideal for downgauging in many applications.
Films are readily treated and pnnt«f to gwe high-quality graptucs. resin is compatible with color concentrates. thus permitting the prcxluctlon of a variety of colored films that serve as protective and attractive decorative wraps.

 

Main characterestics

• Hexene High Density Resin.
• Bimodal Molecular weight distribution.
• High film strength.
• Excellent processability and drawdown.
