Eastman D4042-P Polyethylene (discontinued **)
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); Low Density (LDPE)
Material Notes:	D4042-P is a low density resin designed for applications such as sugar pouches and freezer wrap, where high coating speeds and good drawdown are required. The combination of high melt index and low density also provides good heat seals at high packaging or sealing rates List of Applications: Food packaging Freezer wrap Frozen food packaging Sugar pouches Information supplied by the manufacturer. Information from manufacturer data sheet. Eastman Chemical Company sold its polyethylene business to Westlake Chemical Corporation in Dec. 2006. This grade no longer appears in the Westlake product line.
