Product Description
ALCUDIA® 45060 is a high-density polyethylene copolymer of hexene, with high molecular weight. It is especially designed to make, by blow moulding, containers of medium and high capacity (up to 5000 litres) oils and dangerous goods.
This grade contains stabilizers according to the end use of the item in order to reinforce the thermal and light stability.
Containers made with this grade are suitable to the requirements in standard UNE 53432 parts 1, 2 and 3 in Spain, and NFM-88-560 in France.
