Dow Elite® 5200 Linear Low Density Polyethylene
Categories: Polymer; Film; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); Linear Low Density (LLDPE); Linear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE), Film Grade

Material Notes: ELITE® 5200 enhanced polyethylene resin is a copolymer produced via INSITE® Technology from Dow Plastics. This resin offers high impact strength and good puncture resistance at moderate stretch levels for irregularly shaped loads. In addition, ELITE 5200 resin provides excellent on-pallet elongation for higher yields on regular loads. It complies with U.S. FDA regulation 21 CFR 177.1520 c 3.2 (a) when used unmodified and processed according to good manufacturing practices.
