Product Description
SABIC® LDPE 2102TX00 is a Low Density Polyethylene natural resin designed for the production of Medium/High Voltage power cable insulation using the direct peroxide addition.

SABIC® LDPE 2102TX00 is a non-additivated and non-stabilized LDPE. It exhibits excellent cleanliness and consistent purity.

Sufficient antioxidant should be added to meet specific ageing requirements.

SABIC® LDPE 2102TX00 is a standard grade produced by the tubular process without additives.

SABIC® LDPE 2102TX00 is the general grade for foams produced with chemical blowing agents and physical blowing gases.

The product mentioned herein is in particular not tested and therefore not validated for use in pharmaceutical/medical applications.
