SABIC 2102X3 LDPE Resin

Physical Properties

• Density: Measured per ASTM D1505, the density is 0.921 g/cc (0.0333 lb/in³), suitable for X-linked and non-X-linked foams.
• Melt Flow Rate: Evaluated at 190°C with a 2.16 kg load per ISO 1133, the rate is 2.5 g/10 min, ideal for general foam applications.

Polymer Properties:

• Base Material: Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE)
• Key Features:
  
  • Optimized melt flow for fast-cycle foaming processes, reducing production time and costs.
  • Enables fine-cell foaming for smooth surfaces in aesthetic applications like automotive trim.
  • Compatible with non-cross-linked foam systems requiring flexibility and light weight.

Applications:

The balanced and reliable properties of SABIC® 2102X3 make it an ideal material for a range of demanding film 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.
• 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.
• Shrink Films: Its good mechanical properties and processability also make it a viable option for certain shrink film applications.
