LDPE FD0274 is mainly recommended for the extrusion of thin film for light and medium duty applications.
HS CODE
PROPERTIES
The molecular structure of Lotrène® FD0274 makes it possible to produce very thin, clear and glossy films.
PROCESSING
Lotrène® FD0274 can be easily processed on all types of extruders to make blown or cast films. The melt temperature is suggested to be in the range of 140-150 °C. The best properties of the blown film are achieved at blow up ratios between 2:1 and 3:1. To avoid blocking and shrinkage on the reel, temperature at the nip rolls and take-off should be kept as close as possible to the ambient temperature. The recommended thickness range is from 20 μm to 100 μm
APPLICATIONS
• Thin transparent film
• Thin shrink film
• Foam products
• Food packaging
• Deep Freeze
• Lamination film
