SABIC F00952 Hot Sale HDPE Resin
High Molecular Weight High Density Polyethylene Resin — Blown Film Extrusion Specialist.
Introduction & Material Overview
SABIC® HDPE F00952 is a premium high molecular weight high density polyethylene (HMW-HDPE) copolymer manufactured by Saudi Basic Industries Corporation (SABIC). Specially engineered for advanced blown film extrusion processes.
This grade exhibits a broad molecular weight distribution designed to bridge the gap between heavy-duty physical endurance and fluid processing characteristics. The base resin is pre-blended with high-performance antioxidants, guaranteeing consistent mechanical integrity.
Key Advantage: F00952 delivers exceptional melt strength and stable bubble control, enabling film converters to significantly down-gauge film thickness while maintaining load-bearing requirements.
Superior Tensile Strength
Impressive stiffness and puncture resistance even in ultra-thin films.
Excellent Processability
High draw-down capability and bubble stability for maximum throughput.
Thermal Resistance
Specialized antioxidants safeguard the polymer chain under high-temp extrusion.

Typical Industrial Applications
Carrier & Shopping Bags
High-load T-shirt bags and grocery carriers where handle integrity is critical.
Technical Films
Liners, multi-wall bag inner-layers, and release films requiring high stiffness.
Commercial Packaging
Smooth aesthetics suitable for corona treatment and high-definition graphic printing.
Extrusion Processing Parameters
To unlock the full performance profile of F00952, standard HMW-HDPE extrusion setups equipped with high-cooling dual-lip air rings are highly recommended.
Melt Temperature Profile
200°C – 235°C extrusion temperature window.
Blow-Up Ratio (BUR)
4:1 ratio is advised to balance Machine Direction (MD) and Transverse Direction (TD) properties.
Pro Tip
High melt strength allows for stable long-stalk bubble configurations, which is essential for achieving the high orientation required for heavy-duty bag performance at reduced thickness.
Storage & Handling
Indoor storage must be dry, dust-free, and shielded from direct solar radiation. Keep ambient temperatures strictly below 50°C to prevent thermo-oxidative aging or secondary odor formulation.
Sustainability & Recycling
Aligned with modern circular economy objectives. Features a clean, highly recyclable linear polyethylene backbone. Compatible with mechanical re-granulation and non-hazardous thermal incineration.
