Generic Family: Polyethylene, Medium Density • Supplied by: LyondellBasell Industries
ALATHON XL 3805 is an experimental, high molecular weight, medium density polyethylene copolymer with a broad and bimodal mo lecular weight distribution. Films produced from this resin exhibit excellent MD and TD tear with a soft feel and improved optics in a HMW resin. Applications include typical thinner gauge (<1.0 mil.) merchandise bags, grocery sacks, can liners, and produce bags as well as thicker gauge (>1.0 mil.) heavy duty shipping sacks, construction film and agriculture film. This resin can be used to produce mono- and multi-layer films requiring toughness as well as improved feel and appearance.
