Product Description
HGB-0760 is a certified prime Gas Phase blow molding homopolymer designed for production of containers for packaging of non-aggressive chemicals. HGB-0760 features low to medium swell, excellent processability in conventional continuous extrusion equipment, good ESCR, good Impact strength, high Stiffness, improved Barrier, and low Odor and Taste. Applications include small to medium size thin wall bottle for milk, water and juices, wide mouth containers for body powders, and extrusion of sheet and profiles. HGB-0760 processing temperature is 140 to 165°C, with mold 10 to 30°C.
