Product Description
ALCUDIA® 53070 is a high density polyethylene copolymer of hexane, with high molecular weight. It is specially designed to make, by blow moulding, tanks of medium and high capacity. Also for thermororming sheets.
This grade contains stabilizers according to the end use of the item in order to reinforce the thermal stability.
ALCUDIA® 53070 polyethylene includes stabilizers that permit it to retain the properties after undergoing high temperatures during processing.
High compression resistance drums can be obtained with ALCUDIA® 53070 due to its high molecular weight and density.
ALCUDIA® 53070 is approed for food contact under certain legislation.
