SABIC 2402CX0 LDPE Resin
SABIC 2402CX0 is a low-density polyethylene (LDPE) homopolymer resin designed for blown film extrusion and extrusion coating.
Physical Properties
- Density: Assessed in accordance with ASTM D1505, the density is 0.924 g/cc (0.0334 lb/in³), for foam production with blowing agents.
- Melt Flow Rate: Determined at 190°C with a 2.16 kg load per ISO 1133, the rate is 2.0 g/10 min, suitable for crosslinked and non-crosslinked systems.
Polymer Properties:
- Base Material: Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE)
- Key Features:
- High-density formulation for robust, load-bearing foam structures in industrial applications.
- Suitable for cross-linking to enhance chemical resistance and mechanical strength.
- Compatible with physical blowing agents for low-odor, high-expansion foams.
Applications:
The balanced and reliable properties of SABIC® 2402CX0 make it an ideal material for a range of demanding film and coating applications.
- General Purpose Bags: Used for producing a variety of bags, including consumer bags, bread bags, fresh produce bags, and other general-purpose packaging.
- Food and Textile Packaging: Its balanced strength and optical properties are well-suited for films used in both food packaging and textile wrapping, offering product protection and visibility.
- Extrusion Coating: The resin’s properties make it a viable option for extrusion coating applications, such as liquid cartons, paper, and aluminum foil lamination.
- Co-extrusion Films: The consistent processability and film properties make it a suitable component in multi-layer co-extrusion films where layers with different properties are required.
