SABIC P6006AD HDPE Multimodal Resin

Physical Properties

• Density: Tested following the ASTM D1505 standard, the density is 0.959 g/cc (0.0346 lb/in³). It is important for pressure pipe applications to withstand pressures.
• Oxidative Induction Time (OIT): Based on the EN 728 standard, at 210 °C (410 °F), the OIT is at least 30 minutes. A long OIT ensures long – term stability for pressure pipes.
• Carbon Black Loading: Measured by the ISO 6964 standard, the carbon black loading is 2.25%. It provides UV protection and enhances material properties for underground pipes.
• Melt Flow: According to the ISO 1133 standard, at 190 °C (374 °F), it’s 0.23 g/10 min under a 5.00 kg load and 6.4 g/10 min under a 21.6 kg load. These values optimize the extrusion process for pressure pipes.

Polymer Properties:

• Base Material: High Density Polyethylene (HDPE)
• Key Features:
  
  • Very High Stiffness and Rigidity: The material provides exceptional stiffness, allowing for significant down-gauging of film thickness while maintaining strength.
  • Excellent Film Processability: The multimodal design ensures a broad processing window.

Applications:

The combination of very high stiffness, excellent mechanical properties, and strong processability makes SABIC P6006AD a preferred material for demanding film applications where superior performance is required.

• Packaging Films: It is widely used for bags, liners, and pouches that require very high strength and puncture resistance, such as for food, consumer goods, and industrial products.
• Corrugated Sheets: The material’s exceptional stiffness and toughness are leveraged in the production of corrugated sheets and lightweight panels for packaging and temporary structural applications.
• Agricultural Film: Its durability and barrier properties make it suitable for mulch films and protective covers in agricultural applications.
• Plastic Bags: It is an excellent choice for producing high-quality carrier bags and other consumer bags that need to be very strong and rigid.
