Product Description
PAXOTHENE NA112-27 possess low melt index and good toughness especially suitable for films with thickness of 0.020~0.100 mm. The said films are for package of shopping bags, detergent powder bags, garbage bags, food bags, frozen bags, liner of woven sacks, wooden toy bags, re-closable bags and shrink packaging applications. The toughness of film extruded from PAXOTHENE NA112-27 permits its use for packaging up to about 10kg load. PAXOTHENE NA112-27 is formulated with medium slip to give easy openability of film. High gloss and low haze characteristics of blown film made from PAXOTHENE NA112-27 provide attractive appearance to the packaged goods thus more valuable. PAXOTHENE NA112-27 is also suitably used for compression molding to produce chopping board. PAXOTHENE NA112-27 meets the requirements of the U.S. Food Drug Administration regulation. It can be safely use for food application.
