Low density polyethylene 808P 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. Unless otherwise noted, all tests are run at 23°C and 50% RH. 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. |
