Equate EGDA-6888 HDPE Film Extrusion Resin
Categories: Polymer; Film; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); High Density (HDPE); High Density Polyethylene (HDPE), Film Grade

Material Notes: EGDA-6888 is a high molecular weight, high density polyethylene copolymer that has been designed specifically for tubular film extrusion. Its broad molecular weight distribution and density have been optimized to give excellent bubble stability at high extrusion rates with high film strength and rigidity. The combination of high strength and excellent drawdown-ability makes EGDA-6888 ideal for down gauging in many applications.

Applications: Tubular films produced from EGDA-6888 are recommended for high strength grocery sacks, shopping bags, produce bags and high quality thin films for multiwall sack liners and replacements for thin paper products. Films are nearly gel-free and have excellent treatability. They are suited for printing of high quality graphics.
