LyondellBasell Petrothene® NA942000 Low Density Polyethylene, Film Extrusion Grade  (discontinued **)
Categories: Polymer; Film; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); Low Density (LDPE); Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE), Film Grade

Material Notes: PETROTHENE NA942 is a series of resins designed especially for heavy duty film applications, such as bags used to package fertilizer, peat moss, decorative stone and agricultural and construction materials. NA942 exhibits excellent impact properties and puncture resistance.

Regulatory Status: The basic resin NA942 meets the requirements of the Food and Drug Administration regulation, 21 CFR 177.1520. This regulation allows the use of this olefin polymer in "...articles or components of articles intended for use in contact with food." Specific limitations or conditions of use may apply.
