ALCUDIA® 5502E is a high-density polyethylene copolymer of hexene, with high molecular weight. It is specially designed to make, by blow molding-extrusion, tanks 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 environmental stress cracking resistance can be obtained with ALCUDIA® 5502E 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 optimised for each production line.

The high density polyethylene ALCUDIA® 5502E is a hexene copolymer of medium molecular weight, due to its characteristics is specially intended for extrusion of doubled corrugated drainage and sewage pipes. This product is supplied in natural colour but they can be easily coloured with pigments steady at processing temperature, using dry-colouring or masterbatch techniques.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS

• Structured doubled wall without pressure pipes for underground drainage and sewage.

• Mono and doubled wall corrugated pipes for protecting cables.

Recommended melt temperature range 190 - 210°C. Processing conditions should be optimised for each production line.
