Product Description
16MA400 is an injection moulding grade film grade Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) produced by high pressure tubular process. The high melt flow index makes it ideal for moulding of very thin, intricate and large items having adequate mechanical properties. This grade is also an ideal choice for making masterbatches with higher loading.
