SABIC 218BJ is a butene linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) grade known for its excellent film properties.

Physical Properties

  • Density: The density is 0.918 g/cc (0.0332 lb/in³), and it is measured according to ASTM D1505.
  • Melt Flow: The melt flow is 2.0 g/10 min at a load of 2.16 kg and a temperature of 190°C (equivalent to 2.0 g/10 min at a load of 4.76 lb and a temperature of 374°F), and it is measured according to ASTM D1238.

Polymer Properties:

  1. Base Material: Linear Low – Density Polyethylene (LLDPE)
  2. Key Features & Characteristics:
    • High Toughness and Puncture Resistance: Provides superior protection for packaged goods, reducing the risk of damage.
    • Good Tear Strength: Ensures the film can withstand handling and stress without tearing easily.
    • Excellent Processability: Facilitates stable and efficient production on both conventional and high-speed blown film lines.
    • Good Optical Properties: Results in consistent films with good clarity and low haze, suitable for retail and consumer packaging.

Applications:

The balanced properties of SABIC 218BJ make it ideal for a variety of film applications, including:

  • General-Purpose Packaging Films: Suitable for a broad range of products due to its strength and durability.
  • Heavy-Duty Sacks and Bags: Its high puncture resistance and tear strength make it excellent for packaging industrial goods and fertilizers.
  • Agricultural and Greenhouse Films: The material’s resilience to environmental stress and UV stabilization potential (with additives) makes it effective for agricultural use.
  • Multilayer Films: Can be used as a blending component with other polyolefins to enhance properties like toughness and sealability in co-extruded films.

Processing Guidelines

SABIC 218BJ is specifically designed for blown film extrusion. It exhibits stable bubble behavior and a wide processing window, allowing for consistent quality and high output.

  • Recommended Melt Temperature: 190°C – 210°C
  • Blow-up Ratio (BUR): 2.0 – 3.5
  • Film Thickness Range: 15 µm to 150 µm
