The Petrothene GA601 series resins are pelletized linear low density polyethylenes selected by customers for applications that require maximum strength and toughness. These products offer excellent additive homogeneity, require no transfer equipment modification, and facilitate clean and safe handling. Typical applications include heavy duty shipping sacks, trash can liners, commercial and industrial packaging, as well as food and consumer packaging. The GA601 series resins offer enhanced film strength, drawdown, toughness and heat seal strength. In addition, these resins have excellent low temperature resistance for applications such as stretch film and frozen food packaging. The GA601 series resins can be purchased without additives or fully formulated with slip and antiblock.
