ALCUDIA 5300-MR Repsol YPF Polyethylene, High Density

Product Description

ALCUDIA® 5300-MR brown compound is an hexene copolymer of high molecular weight especially apt for the extrusion of stripes on black water pressure pipe made of 5300-N, to comply with the requirements of the prEN 13244 european standards.
The combination of the antioxidant system and the light stabilizer system used in the 5300-MR provides the following features: excellent protection against thermal oxidation during processing, long term stability, excellent cracking resistance.
The ALCUDIA® compound 5300-MR has excellent mechanical properties, cracking resistance and good resistance to internal pressure and doesn't change the properties of the pipe made of ALCUDIA® 5300-N.
