General Information
Product Description
Industrial Standards Compliance
  • ASTM D 3350: cell classification
    • Natural - PE 234370A (HDB)
    • Yellow - PE 234373E (HDB) (See NOTES 1)
  • Plastics Pipe Institute (PPI): TR-4
    • Yellow Pipe - CONTINUUM™ DGDA-2420 YL (See NOTES 2)
    • ASTM PE 2708 pipe grade - 1250 psi HDB and 800psi HDS @ 23°C, and 1000 psi HDB @ 60°C
  • Consult the regulations for complete details.

CONTINUUM™ DGDA-2420 NT Bimodal Polyethylene Resin is produced using UNIPOL™ II process technology. This product is formulated with a UV stabilizer for outdoor storage. This product may be utilized for pipe applications where long-term hydrostatic strength combined with outstanding resistance to slow crack growth and rapid crack propagation is desired. Suitable applications include natural gas distribution pipes, irrigation and drip tube.

NOTES:
(1) The first five numbers of the cell classification are based on natural resin. The last number and letter are based on yellow resin (natural resin plus approved yellow masterbatch).
(2) Natural resin extruded under proper conditions with approved yellow masterbatch.

The information presented on this plastic material data sheet was acquired by IDES from various sources, including the manufacturer of the resin and recognized testing agencies. In some cases, plastic material updates have been integrated directly into the IDES Plastics Database by the resin manufacturer utilizing the IDES Data Maintenance Tool. IDES makes substantial efforts to assure the accuracy of this plastics data. However, IDES assumes no responsibility for the data values and urges that upon final plastic material selection, data points are validated with the resin manufacturer.
