FLEXUS 9200

FLEXUS 9200 is an LLDPE (linear low density polyethylene) produced using metallocene catalysts, falling under the category of polyolefins. This versatile polymer offers excellent impact and puncture strength, making it ideal for various applications, such as sacks and liners. It is compatible with HDPE (high density polyethylene) and LDPE (low density polyethylene). The product features an antioxidant additive to enhance its stability and a processing aid for smoother extrusion during processing methods like blown film extrusion.
