Product Description
YUZEX 2520 is high density polyethylene resin for ordinary small-size bottles. YUZEX 2520 shows high rigidity and excellent stress cracking resistance. So especially this grade enjoys
good market share for containers such as detergent, shampoo, bleach and cosmetic. 2520 has good processibility by virtue of the wide molecular weight distribution.
Yuzex 2520 complies with FDA regulation 21 CFR177.1520.
