| Product Description | ||||
|
Quattor® MF-28006 is a metallocene linear low density polyethylene (mLLDPE), produced through Unipol® process and recommended for blown film extrusion blended with up to 20% LDPE. It can be processed at LDPE or LLDPE extruders and due to its higher density no HDPE is needed in shrink films formulations.
Films produced using Quattor® MF-28006 exhibit superior mechanical performance, better sealing properties, higher clarity and comparable shrinkage levels in comparison to LDPE rich blends. Applications: automatic packaging for liquid and solid, frozen food packaging, lamination and coextrusion. |
