Osterman & Co Osterlene® LD02520 LDPE
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); Low Density (LDPE)
Material Notes:	LD02520 is designed for heavy duty film applications. Superior puncture resistance combined with excellent impact properties make this resin an ideal choice for bags used to package fertilizer, peat moss, decorative stone and agricultural and construction materials. LD02520 has been designed for excellent processability, bubble stability and good heat sealing over a wide range of extrusion conditions. Optimum properties are found at melt temperatures of 330-430°F (165-221°C) and blow-up ratios between 1.8:1 and 2.5:1. Drawdown to 1.5 mil (38.1 microns) is possible at commercial rates when proper extrusion techniques are used. Specific recommendations can be made only when the end use applications, required properties and processing equipment are known. Availability: North America Additive: Antiblock: No; Slip: No Features: Good Processability Uses: Agricultural Applications; Construction Applications; Film; Heavy-duty Bags; Packaging Processing Method: Extrusion Information provided by Osterman & Company
