Eastman E6838-850P Polyethylene  (discontinued **)
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); Low Density (LDPE)

Material Notes: E6838-850P is a low density resin designed for applications where high coating speeds and good drawdown are required. The combination of high melt index and low density also provides good heat seals at high packaging or sealing rates. It also demonstrates a good adhesion to paper, provides a good moisture barrier and is heat-sealable at low temperatures.

List of Applications:

  • Coatings for paper/paperboard
  • Food-contact applications

Information supplied by the manufacturer.

Information from manufacturer data sheet.

Eastman Chemical Company sold its polyethylene business to Westlake Chemical Corporation in Dec. 2006. This grade no longer appears in the Westlake product line.
