BorPEX™ HE2590

Generic Family: Polyethylene, High Density (HMW)Supplied by: Borealis AG
BorPEX HE2590 is a high molecular weight, high density polyethylene specially designed for production of crosslinked pipes (PE-X)

Applications
BorPEX HE2590 is recommended for the production of crosslinked pipes used in
  • Domestic water
  • Heating
  • Relining
  • Plumbing
  • Industrial applications
  • Domestic gas
  • District heating

The product is used for single as well as for multilayer pipes, where you then differentiate between plastic multilayer with integrated EVOH layer and aluminium multilayer pipes.

Specifications
BorPEX HE2590 is intended to fulfill following standards and regulations, in case of appropriate industrial manufacturing standard procedures applied and a continuous quality system is implemented.
  • DIN 16892
  • DIN 16893
  • EN ISO 15875
  • ASTM F 876

Special features
BorPEX HE2590 is a ready made compound in pellet form for the production of crosslinkable pipes by the electron beam beta-irradiation process (PE-Xc) and included is a specially selected additive package to ensure:
  • Enhanced processability
  • Economical pipe production
  • Excellent product consistency
  • Effective crosslinking behaviour
  • High temperature resistance
  • High resistance to additive washout
