Product Description
710UV is a linear low density polyethylene specifically designed for rotational moulding and high speed extrusion processes. It has good ESCR, high chemical resistance and toughness. It contains a high level of UV stabiliser to give protection for outdoor use.

710UV is a high flow rotational moulding grade that is best suited to intricate items and low cycle times.

710UV is suitable for food contact applications and conforms to the requirements of the Food and Drug Administration Regulations of USA, (CFR21) Part 177.1520, paragraph (c), sub section 3.1 under conditions described in Part 178.2010 (for volumes greater than 18.9 litres and at temperatures below 65°C).
