Borealis HE1878 High Density Polyethylene Powder for Crosslinked Pipes
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); High Density (HDPE); High Density Polyethylene (HDPE), Pipe Grade
Material Notes:	HE1878 is a high molecular weight, high density polyethylene powder for crosslinkable pipes, specially designed for peroxide crosslinking. It is a special polymer, stabilized for transporting and storage. Crosslinking agent (e.g. peroxide) and necessary stabilizers have to be added. Crosslinked pipes based on BorPEX HE1878 are recommended for domestic hot and cold water supply, natural gas distribution, radiator connection, floor heating and industrial applications. Former trade name for this product was BorPEX™. Information provided by the Manufacturer.
