Product Description
Relene 46GP009 (PE:63) is a natural coloured grade for pipe extrusion and for pesticide bottles. It possesses bimodal molecular weight distribution, which improves processability. This grade meets the MFI, Density & Hydrostatic Strength requirements of material grade PE:63 as per IS 4984. When incorporated with adequate quantity of carbon black as specified in clause 5.2.3 of IS: 4984, Pipes will meet PE:63 requirements .

This grade has excellent ESCR properties and suitable for pesticide bottles up to 1 litre capacity.
