SABIC F00851 HDPE Multimodal Resin
SABIC F00851 is a High – Density Polyethylene (HDPE) with good chemical resistance and toughness, suitable for packaging, pipes and industrial applications.
Physical Properties
- Density: Measured by the ASTM D1505 standard, the density of the product is 0.952 g/cc (0.0344 lb/in³), suitable for blown – film applications.
- Melt Flow: According to the ISO 1133 standard, at 190 °C (374 °F), it has a melt flow rate of 0.30 g/10 min with a 5.00 kg (11.0 lb) load and 9.0 g/10 min with a 21.6 kg (47.6 lb) load.
Polymer Properties:
- Base Material: High – Density Polyethylene (HDPE)
- Key Features:
- High Stiffness and Rigidity: The material provides excellent stiffness, allowing for down-gauging of film thickness while maintaining strength.
- Excellent Film Processability: The multimodal design ensures a broad processing window.
- Good Barrier Properties:High density provides excellent moisture and gas barrier properties, thereby extending the shelf life of packaged goods.
- High Puncture and Tear Resistance: The film demonstrates good toughness.
Applications:
The combination of stiffness, barrier properties, and toughness makes SABIC F00851 a preferred material for demanding film applications.
- Packaging Films: Widely used for bags and liners that require high strength and puncture resistance, such as for food, industrial, and consumer goods.
- Corrugated Sheets: The material’s stiffness and toughness are leveraged in the production of corrugated sheets and lightweight panels for packaging.
- 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 strong and rigid.
