Product Description
Safrene® F 7740F2 High Density Polyethylene Resin is a medium molecular mass extrusion grade ideally suited to the extrusion and subsequent knitting of tapes and monofilaments typically used in agricultural pockets and shade netting.

Safrene® F 7740F2 High Density Polyethylene Resin is also used for film extrusion applications where excellent roll geometry is required. As a film it exhibits an excellent barrier to moisture.

Safrene® F 7740F2 High Density Polyethylene Resin contains slip and antistatic additives.
