Formosa Plastics Formolene® HP4401 Pipe HDPE
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); High Density (HDPE); High Density Polyethylene (HDPE), Pipe Grade
Material Notes:	High Density Hexene Copolymer Applications: Potable water, industrial mining, oil and gas gatherings Formolene HP4401 is a high performance copolymer that is designed for the most demanding requirements of pressure pipe applications. It has good long-term hoop strength performance, very high melt strength, outstanding toughness even at low temperatures. Produced using licensor formulation for HHM TR-480Z. Licensor does not warrant or imply that this product meets their specifications for HHM TR-480Z. Formolene HP4401 meets all the requirements of ASTM D4976-PE225. It also meets the requirements of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as specified in 21 CFR 177.1520 for food packaging. Nominal properties reported herein were determined on compression molded specimens prepared in accordance with Procedure C of ASTM D1928. Physical properties are typical of product but do not reflect normal testing variance and therefore should not be used for specification purposes.
