Exceed,Ñ¢ m 1518.MM is a metallocene polyethylene resin characterized as an ethylene 1-hexene copolymer. It exhibits exceptional tensile and impact strength, along with high puncture resistance, making it suitable for applications requiring downgauging. The resin is available in pellet form and is compatible with various processing aids and thermal stabilizers. Typical properties include a density of 0.918 g/cm¬=, a melt index of 1.5 g/10 min, and a peak melting temperature of 246¬8F (119¬8C). Film properties demonstrate a tensile strength at yield of 1300 psi (8.8 MPa) in both machine direction (MD) and transverse direction (TD), with elongation at break values of 520% MD and 600% TD. The material also shows a dart drop impact resistance of 540 g and an Elmendorf tear strength of 300 g MD and 470 g TD. Exceed,Ñ¢ m 1518.MM is suitable for a variety of applications, including barrier food packaging, general packaging, and premium trash bags. It is available in regions including Asia Pacific, Latin America, and North America.
Used to formulate a wide range of film structures offering superior mechanical performance for highly demanding end-use applications.
