Eastman 184MF Polyethylene Film (discontinued **)
Categories:	Polymer; Film; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); Low Density (LDPE); Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE), Molded
Material Notes:	Polyethylene 184MF is a low-density formulation with medium slip and low antiblock. It is suggested for film applications where enhanced processability and high clarity are required. It is characterized by good tear strength, impact strength, wide heat-sealing range and printability. An additive in this formulation limits the use of 184MF to nonalcoholic foods, and the average thickness of such polymers in the form in which they contact food shall not exceed 0.0050 inch. Applications/Uses Food packaging Household wraps Household bags Eastman Chemical Company sold its polyethylene business to Westlake Chemical Corporation in Dec. 2006. This grade no longer appears in the Westlake product line.
