SABIC® HDPE B5421 granules, natural color - 21 tonnes

SABIC® HDPE B5421 - 21 tonnes

Granules in natural color.

Description
SABIC® HDPE B5421 is typically used for blow molding consumer packaging up to 5 l, combining good stiffness with high environmental stress cracking resistance (ESCR). This grade is commonly used for packaging detergents, cleaners, shampoos, and cosmetics where high ESCR is required.
This product is not intended for pharmaceutical or medical applications and must not be used in such applications.
