NOVA Chemicals NOVAPOL® LA-0219-A LDPE Foam Resin
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); Low Density (LDPE)

Material Notes:

Homopolymer

Features:

  • Versatile multipurpose foam processing
  • Good foam-processing window
  • Suitable drawdown characteristics
  • Maintains foam dimensional stability
  • Achieves packaging-foam density

Additives:

  • Base resin

Applications:

  • Edge protection
  • Foam sheet and profile extrusion
  • Conventional and cross-linked foams
  • Specialty foams

Film properties are typical of blown film extruded at a blowup ratio of 2.5:1, but are dependent upon operating conditions.

United States: NOVAPOL LA-0219-A resin complies with the specifications contained in the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulation 21 CFR 177.1520 for olefin polymers, para. (c) 2.1, and may thus be used in the United States as an article or component of an article intended for use in contact with food. This resin is subject to the specific limitation that it may not be used in articles used for packing or holding food during cooking.

NOVA Chemicals polyethylene resins are biologically and chemically inert.
