Versalis Riblene® AB 10 Film Grade Low Density Polyethylene
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); Low Density (LDPE); Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE), Film Grade
Material Notes:	Riblene AB 10 is a high molecular weight low density polyethylene resin suitable for blown film extrusion. Riblene AB 10 is characterized by a high melt strength leading to a good bubble stability during extrusion. Films manufactured by Riblene AB 10 are easily heat shrinkable and characterized by optimum mechanical properties. Applications: Riblene AB 10 is recommended for the production of greenhouse film, heavy duty shrink film and industrial bags. Property values reported for film extruded with BUR 1:3, thickness 70 µm. Actual properties are typical and may vary depending upon operating conditions and additive package. Information provided by Versalis.
