Borealis BorSafe™ HE3490-LS Black High Density Polyethylene for Pressure Pipes
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); High Density (HDPE); High Density Polyethylene (HDPE), Pipe Grade
Material Notes:	HE3490-LS is a black, bimodal, high density polyethylene classified as an MRS 10.0 material (PE100) produced by the advanced Borstar technology. Well dispersed carbon black gives outstanding UV resistance. Long term stability is ensured by an optimized stabilization system. HE3490-LS is recommended for pressure pipe systems in the applications field of drinking water and natural gas, pressure sewerage, relining, sea outfall and industrial. It is especially designed fro the production of larger diameter, thick wall pipe, but can be processed for the whole range of diameters. It also shows excellent resistance to rapid crack propagation and slow crack growth. Former trade name for this product was Borstar®. Information provided by the Manufacturer.
