Petroquimica Triunfo Trithene® TS 7003 LDPE - High Strength Film
Categories: Polymer; Film; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); Low Density (LDPE)

Material Notes: The Trithene® TS 7003 resin is a low-density, high molecular-weight polyethylene that offers high mechanical strength and toughness even at low temperatures. Additionally, this product is easily processed and allows high thickness uniformity. The product was developed to meet the requirements for automatic packaging: good clarity, productivity, low coefficient of friction (COF) and sealability. Trithene® TS 7003 resin shows excellent performance in conventional extruders and low energy consumption during processing. This product complies with ASTM standard D1248-IA5 and the requirements of Brazilian and corresponding legislation of Mercosul and it is in conformity with FDA Regulations 21 CFR 177.1520 (c) 2.1, to contact with foodstuff.

Applications: Films for automatic packaging of liquids, such as milk, yogurt, juices, etc. Packaging for frozen food: meat, chicken, seafood, fries, etc.

Resin Properties: Compressed molded plate. Method ASTM D-1928, procedure C. Film obtained on a 50mm blow film line with barrier screw, 25:1 L/D, 1.0mm die gap, 50µm gauge, 2.3:1 BUR.
