Product Description
SABIC® LDPE 2501TN00 is a grade without additives with a low gel level, which combines excellent draw down ability with fair optical properties and stiffness.

SABIC® LDPE 2501TN00 is used in diaper film, surface protection film, lamination film and in applications where low blocking behaviour is required and the presence of slip and anti block is unwanted.
