Borealis Borstar® HE3492-LS Yellow-Orange High Density Polyethylene for Natural Gas Pipes (discontinued **)
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); High Density (HDPE); High Density Polyethylene (HDPE), Pipe Grade
Material Notes:	Borstar HE3492-LS is a yellow-orange, cadmium free, high density polyethylene compound classified as a MRS 10.0 material (PE100) produced with the advanced Borstar technology. It includes a combination of pigments and stabilizers to ensure long-term, UV-resistance, and resistance to gas condensate. It also shows excellent resistance to rapid crack propagation and slow crack growth. Borstar HE3492-LS is recommended for pressure pipe systems in the applications field of drinking water and natural gas, and gives good processing properties and low sagging in thick-walled pipes.
