ALCUDIA® HDPE 5503

Generic Family: Polyethylene, High Density • Supplied by: REPSOL
ALCUDIA® 5503 is a high-density polyethylene copolymer of hexene, with high molecular weight. It is specially designed to make, by blow molding-extrusion, containers for liquid detergents and chemicals. This grade contains stabilizers according to the end use of the item in order to reinforce the thermal stability.

Good mechanical properties and excellent level of both stiffness and environmental stress cracking resistance can be obtained with ALCUDIA® 5503 due to its molecular weight and density.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
Packaging of non-aggressive liquid detergents and chemicals.

Recommended melt temperature range from 180 to 200°C. Processing conditions should be optimized for each production line.
