Blow molding. A polymer with broad molecular weight distribution and high molecular weight. This product provides an excellent combination of extrudability and parison stability, which contribute to uniform wall thickness in large parts. It is ideal for blow molding containers of >80 liters closed head shipping containers and other similar parts. The broad distribution also provides outstanding environmental stress crack resistance at a good rigidity. Because of these characteristics, a wide variety of products, such as industrial chemicals, latex paints, printing inks, foodstuffs, adhesives, and other chemical specialties my be packaged in containers produced from this resin. The smooth surface of molded parts is readily treated and printed for high quality applications. Main characteristics: outstanding environmental stress crack resistance, excellent parison melt strength/low sag, good extrudability/processability, good rigidity. Mechanical property data for samples molded and tested in accordance with ASTM D4976. Information provided by ETHYDCO. |
