ALCUDIA® PE071 is a low density polyethylene grade, produced by high pressure autoclave technology, especially intended for extrusion coating. This material offers an adequate balance between easy processability, good organoleptic properties, excellent adhesion and low neck-in. It does not contain any additives.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS

• Extrusion coating.

• Coextruded thin film.

• Injection moulding.

The excellent draw down properties of ALCUDIA® PE-071 allow high-speed coatings, up to 850 m/min and 5 g/m² at a maximum extrusion temperature of 330°C.
This material has a very low neck-in throughout a wide range of extrusion conditions.
Recommended melt temperature range for extrusion coating from 275 to 330°C.
Temperature range for coextrusion depending on the processed polymers.
Processing conditions should be optimised for each production line.
