Product Description
LL6208AF has been developed for use in rich blends in heavy duty sacks, liners and other thin film applications requiring excellent mechanical performance. This grade is also recommended for artificial grass applications.

LL6208AF is a linear low density polyethylene copolymer containing hexene-1 as the comonomer. It offers the following properties:
  • Excellent impact strength and puncture resistance
  • High tear streangth
  • Good optical properties
  • Good bubble stability
  • Excellent sealability and hot-tack strength

If corona treatment is necessary, the level should normally be in the range 38-48 mN/m.

We recommend that you consult your INEOS O&P Europe technical representative for further advice on the use of LL6208AF.
