Eraclene MS 80 U BCA has a narrow molecular weight distribution and a high fluidity make it ideally for injection moulding applications like thinwalled (food containers) aerosol caps. The polymer has high thermal stability during extrusion and a good balance between fluidity and mechanical properties.

Sustainability
The product Eraclene MS 80 U BCA ‘Bio Circular attributed’ is a highly sustainable HDPE produced using bionafta from renewable raw materials together with traditional raw materials. In order to attribute the sustainable feedstock component to the final product Versalis applies the Mass Balance approach, a recognized methodology that allows to trace the flow of materials along the value chain and to assign the sustainability characteristic of the raw material to the final product on a documentary basis. Eraclene MS 80 U BCA provides the same chemical composition and physical-mechanical performance of the traditional grade, in addition is accompanied by a sustainability declaration that certifies the share of bio attributed product. It is a gas phase high density polyethylene resin (HDPE) with antioxidants, suitable for injection moulding application. The production of Eraclene MS 80 U BCA allows to contribute to the circular economy, since the bionafta used derives from waste from industrial processing of organic substances (e.g. used cooking oils). Eraclene MS 80 U BCA will be bio circular attributed for 95%. The exact amount of “bio circular attributed” product will be reported in the sustainability certificate issued upon the delivery of the product.
