Product Characterestics

ADVANCENE™ EM-4925-AAH HDPE Resin is also considered a multipurpose blow molding resin designed for the high speed production of blow molded containers used for packaging household industrial chemicals (e.g. detergents, bleach, fabric softeners), toiletries and cosmetics (e.g., shampoos,creams,lotions, etc.) health and medical aids. In addition, it can be blow molded into other thin-walled parts and houseware items, and can also be extruded into profiles or sheets.

Main Characteristics :
• Outstanding environmental stress crack resistance.
• High impact strength.
• Good extrusion characteristics.
