SABIC® | LLDPE Rotational Molding Grade | MFR = 5 g/10 min at 190°C / 2.16 kg | Density = 935 kg/m³
Description
SABIC® LLDPE R50035E is a linear low-density polyethylene grade with balanced density and viscosity. It is designed to provide good environmental stress crack resistance together with rigidity, toughness, surface gloss, and low warpage.
The grade is supplied in pellet form and contains antioxidant and UV-stabilization additives to support outdoor applications and finished-product durability.
Key Characteristics
Applications
For rotational molding, the pellet grade is normally ground into powder before processing.
- Large industrial tanks
- Agricultural tanks
- Trash and refuse containers
- Chemical shipping drums
- Screw closures and caps
- Household products
