Borealis Borstar® ME6053 Black Bimodal MD Polyethylene Compound for Jacketing of Communication and Power Cables
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); Medium Density (MDPE); Medium Density Polyethylene (MDPE), Extruded

Material Notes: Borstar ME6053 is a natural, bimodal medium-density polyethylene compound produced using the Borstar process. It is characterized by its tailor made properties important in jacketing applications, i.e. very low shrink back, excellent stress crack resistance and wide processing window. Borstar contains a well dispersed UV-stabilizer in sufficient amount to ensure excellent weathering resistance, corresponding to a minimum 15 years exposure in continental European climate.
