Versalis Clearflex® FF 508 Octene Copolymer Linear Medium Density Polyethylene  (discontinued **)
Categories: Polymer; Film; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); Medium Density (MDPE); Linear Medium Density Polyethylene (LMDPE), Film

Material Notes: Clearflex FF 508 is an octene copolymer linear medium density polyethylene (C8-LMDPE), with antioxidants and processing aid, suitable for blown film extrusion.

Films manufactured with Clearflex FF 508 are characterized by excellent optical properties, if compared to the resin density, high rigidity and temperature resistance, and optimum sealing properties.

Main Applications: Due to its high optical, mechanical and sealing performances, Clearflex FF 508 is recommended for applications in which the high rigidity and the optimum gloss of this resin are a key factor (hygienic film, packaging for mineral water). The high Vicat softening point makes Clearflex FF 508 ideal for the production of film for food which is submitted to pasteurization or sterilization processes.
