SABIC® LDPE HP2025NN
LOW DENSITY POLYETHYLENE
DESCRIPTION
LDPE HP2025NN Low Density Polyethylene Resin has been designed with and optimum balance of melt strength and drawability to give excellent
performance in cast film, foam, blown film and bubble film extrusion. When properly fabricated, LDPE HP2025NNdisplays: excellent processability; low
neck-down (cast film); very good toughness and impact properties; and good tear strength. In foam extrusion, LDPE HP2025NN gives and ideal balance
between cell growth and stabilization to allow the production of very low density products without voids. The resin Does not contain any slip or antiblock
additive. LDPE HP2025NN has very low level of gels
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
Foam.
Bubble film.
General purpose blown film.

STORAGE AND HANDLING
Polyethylene resin should be stored in a manner to prevent a direct exposure to sunlight and/or heat. The storage area should also be dry and preferably
do not exceed 50°C. SABIC would not give warranty to bad storage conditions which may lead to quality deterioration such as color change, bad smell
and inadequate product performance. It is advisable to process PE resin within 6 months after delivery.
