SABIC P5307N HDPE Multimodal Resin

SABIC P5307N is a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) resin with a multimodal molecular weight distribution, specifically designed for pipe extrusion.

Physical Properties

  • Density: Measured with the ASTM D1505 standard, the density is 0.952 g/cc (0.0344 lb/in³). It is associated with the material’s mechanical properties, like stiffness and toughness.
  • Melt Flow: Based on the ISO 1133 standard, at 190 °C (374 °F) with a 21.6 kg load, the melt flow is 8.0 g/10 min. A high melt flow implies good processability for pipe extrusion.

Polymer Properties:

  • Base Material: High Density Polyethylene (HDPE)
  • Key Features:
    • Superior Long-Term Hydrostatic Strength:The material is designed to withstand continuous internal pressure for decades, ensuring reliable performance in demanding environments.
    • Excellent Stress Crack Resistance:The multimodal structure provides outstanding resistance to slow crack growth.
    • High Resistance to Rapid Crack Propagation:This grade has a high resistance to fast-moving cracks, which is a crucial safety feature for pressure pipes transporting gas or water.

Applications:

  • Potable Water Pipes: The material is widely used for municipal and residential water supply systems, where its long-term strength and safety are paramount.
  • Natural Gas Pipes: Its excellent RCP resistance makes it a safe and reliable choice for gas distribution networks, preventing leaks.
  • Industrial Pipes: This grade is also used for a variety of industrial and process piping applications that require high chemical resistance and durability.
