Product Description
50GF003 is a blown film grade of High Molecular Weight High Density Polyethylene (HMHDPE). It possesses bimodel molecular weight distribution, which improves processability. 50GF003 can readily be processed on HMHDPE blown film extrusion lines. The films will have homogeneous, finely textured, opaque appearance and exhibit very good mechanical properties.
