Total Lotrene® Q2018H Linear Low Density Polyethylene, Blown Film
Categories: Polymer; Film; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); Linear Low Density (LLDPE); Linear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE), Film Grade; LLDPE/Butene, Film

Material Notes: Lotrene® Q2018 Series are Linear Low Density Polyethylene resins produced in a gas phase reactor using butene (C4) co-monomer. They are designed for film applications and can be used in pure form as well as blended with other PE resins, such as LDPE or HDPE and mPE resins for mono extrusion of co-extrusion process to modify film properties.

Lotrene® Q2018 Series are suited for many applications in the field of consumer, industrial, food or hygiene packaging such as freezer film, bread bags, shoppers and bags as well as lamination film and multilayer packaging film.

Lotrene® Q2018H is a blown film grade and contains thermal stabilizers.
