Product Description
Safrene® F 7660 High Density Polyethylene Resin is a medium molecular mass grade with good processing properties. It exhibits a good surface finish with high hardness and rigidity.

Safrene® F 7660 High Density Polyethylene Resin is recommended for milk and fruit juice bottles as well as other general purpose bottle applications up to 5 liter where good stiffness is required but environmental stress-crack resistance is not critical.
