Borealis Borstar® HE6067 Black Bimodal HD Polyethylene Compound for Jacketing of Communication and Power Cables
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); High Density (HDPE); High Density Polyethylene (HDPE), Extruded
Material Notes:	Borstar HE6067 is a black, bimodal, co-polymer high density polyethylene (HDPE) compound produced according to the bimodal Borstar process. It is characterized by its balanced properties important in jacketing applications. For example, very low shrink-back, excellent stress-crack resistance and a wide processing window. HE6067 can resist severe laying condition even at elevated temperature. Processing conditions however, must be optimized for best surface conditions whenever jacketing large diameter cables. Borstar HE6067 is especially well suited for fiber optic applications due to its very low shrinkage back characteristics as well as power cable jacketing. Information provided by the Manufacturer.
