ExxonMobil LD 071.LQ LDPE Resin

Physical Properties

• Density: Measured by ExxonMobil Method, the density is 0.924 g/cc (0.0334 lb/in³), characterizing the resin’s molecular packing density and fundamental physical properties.
• Thickness: With an unspecified test method, the thickness is 50.8 microns (2.00 mil), a key specification for film design and application.
• Melt Flow: According to ASTM D1238, the melt flow rate is 0.70 g/10 min under a load of 2.16 kg and at 190 °C, reflecting the resin’s fluidity during extrusion processing.
• Antiblock Level: Using an unspecified test method, the antiblock level is 4000 ppm, minimizing film surface stickiness through additives for easier production and storage.

Polymer Properties:

• Base Material: Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE)
• Key Features:
  
  • Exceptional Optical Properties: LD 071.LQ is renowned for its superior clarity, high gloss, and low haze.
  • High Purity and Cleanliness: With a very low gel content and minimal additives, this resin ensures a clean melt stream during processing.
  • Good Mechanical Properties: LD 071.LQ provides a robust combination of strength and flexibility.

Applications:

The unique combination of high optical quality, excellent processability, and purity makes LD 071.LQ an ideal material for a variety of demanding film applications.
