Formosa Plastics Formolene® HL5010 Blow Molding HDPE
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); High Density (HDPE); High Density Polyethylene (HDPE), Blow Molding Grade
Material Notes:	Extra High Molecular Weight Hexene Copolymer Applications: Blow Molded 55-gallon shipping containers, gasoline tanks, agricultural chemical tanks; Extruded pallets, cattle feeders, large formed parts, boats Formolene HL5010 has good melt strength, excellent stress crack resistance, good rigidity, and excellent impact strength even at low temperatures. These properties make HL5010 an excellent resin for large part blow molding applications. Produced using licensor formulation for HXM 50100. Licensor does not warrant or imply that this product meets their specifications for HXM 50100. Meets all requirements of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as specified in 21 CFR 177.1520, covering safe use of polyolefin articles intended for direct food contact. Nominal properties reported herein were determined on compression molded specimens prepared in accordance with Procedure C of ASTM D1928. Physical properties are typical of product but do not reflect normal testing variance and therefore should not be used for specification purposes.
