Polybutene-1 PB 1600M LyondellBasell Polybutylene

Product Description

Polybutene-1 grade PB 1600M is a formulated random copolymer of butene-1 with low ethylene content and contains both slip and antiblock.
In blends with PE polymers, it forms a separate, but well-dispersed phase. Its primary use is as a minority blend component in the seal layer of easy-opening packaging films, produced by blown film extrusion. A typical PE blend partner for PB 1600M could be any ethylene homo-or copolymer in the melt index range of 0.5 to 2.0 g/10min.
PB-1 crystallizes slowly and is very shear sensitive in its flow behavior.
Food law compliance information about this product can be found in separate product documentation.

Additional Information
Melting Temperature, 97°C, corresponds with the melting point of crystalline form 2 which is measured immediately after solidification. Form 2 corresponds with the melting point available for each batch on the Certificate of Analysis (COA). The values listed as Tensile Stress at Yield, Tensile Stress at Break, and Tensile Strain at Break, ISO 527-1,-2, were tested in accordance with ISO 8986-2 Tensile Strain at Break, ISO 8986-2, was measured on specimens conditioned for 10 days at 20°C
