ALCUDIA® LDPE TR-135

About
ALCUDIA® TR-135 natural compound is an hexene copolymer of high molecular weight especially apt for the extrusion of pipe. Because other good mechanical properties and their characteristics, the polyethylene natural compound ALCUDIA® TR-135, is designed to produce pipe. It has the antioxidant package enough for the extrusion process. This product is supplied in natural colour but they can be easily coloured with pigments steady at processing temperature, using dry-colouring or masterbatch techniques. ALCUDIA® TR-135 is a medium density polyethylene grade, high molecular weight hexene copolymer, especially intended for film extrusion. This material offers easy processability into films with excellent mechanical properties, good sealing characteristics and high stress crack resistance. It contains antioxidant additives. TYPICAL APPLICATIONS Carrier bags. Refuse sacks. Waterproof sheets. Recommended melt temperature range from 190 to 220°C. Processing conditions should be optimised for each production line.&&
