LyondellBasell Microthene® F FN51000 Low Density Polyethylene
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); Low Density (LDPE); Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE), Molded
Material Notes:	General Description Microthene F polyolefin powders are ultra-fine, spherically shaped particles with narrow size distribution suitable for use in a broad range of specialty applications. Microthene F powders combine the unique properties of a polyolefin resin with a microfine particle size. Materials may contain flow-enhancing agents as required for processing and handling. Process Techniques The microfine size and spherical shape of Microthene F powders facilitate dispersibility in aqueous or organic systems. Specific suggestions can be made only when equipment, materials, process parameters and conditions of use are known. Regulatory Status Microthene powders comply with certain Food and Drug Administration regulations, which may or may not permit their contact with food. Specific limitations or conditions of use may apply. This product is from the former Equistar product line.
