NOVA Chemicals SCLAIR® FG220-A LLDPE Film Resin
Categories:	Polymer; Film; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); Linear Low Density (LLDPE); Linear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE), Film Grade
Material Notes:	Octene Copolymer Features: Exceptional toughness Low gel level Additives: Enhanced processing antioxidant Applications: Cast stretch wrap Co-extrusion and lamination Film properties are typical of cast film extruded at a melt temperature of 500°F, and a line speed of 800 ft/min. United States: SCLAIR FG220-A resin complies with the specifications contained in the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulation 21 CFR 177.1520 for olefin polymers, para. (c) 3.2a, and may thus be used in the United States as an article or component of an article intended for use in contact with food. This resin is subject to the specific limitation that it may contact food only at temperatures of 212°F and below (21 CFR 176.170(c) Table 2, conditions of use B–H). NOVA Chemicals polyethylene resins are biologically and chemically inert. Information provided by NOVA Chemicals®
