SABIC HP2023JN LDPE Resin
SABIC® HP2023JN is a low-density polyethylene (LDPE) homopolymer resin designed specifically for blown film extrusion.
Physical Properties
- Density: As per ASTM D1505, the density of injection-molded samples is 0.923 g/cc (0.0333 lb/in³), supporting its use in packaging films.
- Melt Flow: Tested at 190°C with a 2.16 kg load per ASTM D1238, the melt flow rate is 2.0 g/10 min, balancing processability and mechanical properties.
Polymer Properties:
- Base Material: Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE)
- Key Features:
- Excellent stretchability for stretch – wrap applications.
- Low – odor formulation suitable for food – contact products.
- Good electrical insulation properties.
Applications:
The balanced and reliable properties of SABIC® HP2023JN 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.
