LyondellBasell Petrothene® NA217080 Low Density Polyethylene
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); Low Density (LDPE); Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE), Extrusion Grade
Material Notes:	Applications PETROTHENE NA 217-080 is a natural low density polyethylene resin formulated for use as primary insulation for coaxial and control cable applications. NA 217-080 has also been designed for use as a base resin for compounding material including gas-injected or chemically expanded insulation. Processing Techniques NA 217-080, like other thermoplastic polyolefin resins, can be extruded as wire and cable insulation by means a conventional extruder. Below are suggested extrusion conditions for NA 217-080. These conditions are intended as general guidelines only and are not optimum values, since manufacturing conditions, such as extruder type and size have an effect on the processing of thermoplastic resins. This product is from the former Equistar product line.
