ALCUDIA® T80N black compound is a high density polyethylene with a broad bimodal molecular weight distribution designed for the extrusion of pressure pipes. It complies with the requirements of EN 12201 and EN 1555 standards, with a MRS 8MPa - PE80 classification. The combination of the antioxidant system and minimum of 2.0 % well dispersed carbon black used in ALCUDIA® T80N provides an excellent protection against thermal oxidation during processing and good long-term thermal stability and UV resistance.

Because other good mechanical properties and their characteristics, and an excellent ESCR resistance the polyethylene black compound ALCUDIA® T80N, is designed to produce:

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS

• Gas, industrial and drinking water pressure pipes.

• Fittings and valves.

• Large diameter pipes without pressure.

Recommended melt temperature range 200 - 210°C. Processing conditions should be optimised for each production line.
