ICORENE 1440 AO+ UV+ BUE 5144
Description
Icorene 1440 is a UV stabilised hexene high density polyethylene specifically developed for use in rotational moulding.
This grade is typically used by customers to manufacture large water, fuel or chemical tanks and also underground infrastructure parts.
Icorene 1440 has good overall mouldability, extremely high ESCR and impact strength (especially at low temperatures).
This grade is designed to have improved resistance against the harmful effect of biodiesel fuel.
It is not intended for use in medical and pharmaceutical applications.
