Versalis Clearflex® FH 50 Linear Medium Density Polyethylene (discontinued **)
Categories:	Polymer; Film; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); Medium Density (MDPE); Linear Medium Density Polyethylene (LMDPE), Film
Material Notes:	Clearflex FH 50 is a linear medium density polyethylene, with antioxidants, suitable for blown film extrusion. Films manufactured with Clearflex FH 50 are characterized by a good balance between toughness and rigidity, have high temperature resistance together with optimum sealing properties. Main Applications: Due to its mechanical properties and excellent processability, Clearflex FH 50 is recommended in coextrusion for the production of film having good rigidity. Moreover, its very low gel content makes the resin ideal for lamination. Information provided by Polimeri Europa. Versalis is the Eni subsidiary containing the plastics and rubber businesses.
