Total Lumicene® mPE M5510 EP Metallocene Polyethylene, Blown Film
Categories:	Polymer; Film; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); High Density (HDPE); High Density Polyethylene (HDPE), Film Grade
Material Notes:	This product is a Total Ecosolutions grade. Lumicene® mPE M5510 EP is a second generation metallocene high density homopolymer polyethylene. Lumicene® mPE M5510 EP can be processed at high output rates with low extrusion pressure, excellent bubble stability and gauge control in comparison with conventional LLDPE and first generation metallocene based polyethylene. The outstanding stiffness combined with good optical properties brings a significant downgauging potential. The high density of Lumicene® mPE M5510 EP enables its use in applications with moisture barrier requirements, such as dry food packaging, and brings improved heat resistance, compared to commonly used HDPE. Lumicene® mPE M5510 EP is suited for many applications in the field of consumer, industrial, food or hygiene packaging such as bags, heavy-duty sacks, automatic packaging specialty film, mailing film and lamination.
