LyondellBasell Alathon H 5057 High Denisty Polyethylene
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); High Density (HDPE); High Density Polyethylene (HDPE), Injection Molded
Material Notes:	Alathon high density polyethylene resins are produced in North America using slurry and solution technologies and include bi-modal HMW grades commonly used in pressure pipe and blown film, general purpose and thin-wall injection molding grades, and blown film grades known for their moisture barrier performance. Alathon H5057 is a multi-purpose high-flow resin that exhibits enhanced low temperature impact performance, enhanced processing and thermal stability for fast cycling in multi-cavity stack molds, good color and organoleptic properties. Typical applications are rigid food containers such as cultured dairy product containers, margarine tubs, butter tubs, small frozen food containers and promotional drink cups. Applications: TWIM Food Containers Information provided by LyondellBasell.
