Total Lumicene® mPE M 3427 Metallocene Polyethylene, Cast Film
Categories:	Polymer; Film; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); Linear Low Density (LLDPE); Linear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE), Extrusion Grade; LLDPE/Octene, Extruded; LLDPE/Hexene, Molded
Material Notes:	Lumicene® mPE M 3427 is a second generation metallocene based Polyethylene with hexene as comonomer. Lumicene® mPE M 3427 can be processed at high output rates with low extrusion pressure, low neck-in, excellent drawability and good gauge control in comparison with conventional LLDPE and first generation metallocene based polyethylene. The combination of these features combined with excellent optical properties brings a significant downgauging potential. Lumicene® mPE M 3427 is suited for many applications in the field of consumer, food and hygiene packaging such as hygiene film, stretch wrap (non cling layer) and lamination.
