Product Description
Bormed HE7541-PH is a bimodal, natural, high-density polyethylene produced by Borstar PE technology and intended for healthcare applications. This grade combines low volatilities, high environmental stress crack resistance and superior flow properties with good impact strength even at low temperatures.

Products from this grade can be sterilized with ethylene oxide or with radiation up to 35 kGy.
