STN7006 is a low-density polyethylene (LDPE) designed specifically for coextruded films and lamination. This resin offers a remarkable combination of mechanical, optical, and stiffness properties. With low gels content, it ensures the production of films with excellent appearance. STN7006 is identified as PE 114 per ASTM D-4976-04a standard specifications and is free from additives. Notably, this grade contains a minimum of 95% carbon biobased content, as determined by ASTM D6866.
