CERTENE™ MDF-137

Generic Family: Polyethylene, Medium Density • Supplied by: Muehlstein
MDF-137 is a certified prime grade Hexene copolymer MEDIUM MOLECULAR WEIGHT developed for production of thin gauged paper-like Blown films. MDF-137 features BROAD molecular weight distribution for improved processability in HMW high stalk equipment or in conventional film lines equipped with die gap = 0.75 to 1.25 = mm., excellent melt strength, easy film drawdown, and optimal overall balance of thin film mechanical properties: stiffness, tensile, Elmendorf tear, and Dart impact strength. MDF-137 applications include merchandise, produce, and trash bags, shopping bags, small shoppers, lamination films, wrapping films, and tablecloths. Minimum recommended film thickness is 12 microns (0.5 mil), and melt processing temperature 195° to 220° C.
