TASNEE LD 0725N POLYETHYLENE

DESCRIPTION

TASNEE LD 0725N is a Low Density Polyethylene with a Melt Flow Rate of 0.75 g/10min (190°C/2.16kg),
recommended for mono and multilayer blown film extrusion.
TASNEE LD 0725N is an additive free grade and has a suitable molecular structure to make film with excellent
mechanical and optical properties.
TASNEE LD 0725N can be easily processed on all types of extruders designed for polyethylene. The melt temperature is
suggested to be in the range of 170 – 220°C. Excellent properties of the film are achieved with a blow-up ratio of 2:1 and
recommended film thickness range from 25 to 100 μm.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS:
Medium Duty Shrink-wrap, Medium Duty Bags & Pouches, Food and Non-food Packaging Films.

Food Contact
The material is manufactured to the highest standards but, special requirements apply to certain applications,
such as food contact end-use. For specific information on regulatory compliance, please contact TASNEE
below or our local representative in your area.

Safety
Workers should be protected from the possibility of skin or eye contact with molten polymer. As minimum
precaution, safety glasses and heat resistance gloves are suggested to prevent mechanical or thermal injury to
eyes and hands. Molten polymer exceeding processing condition requirements may degrade and release, fumes,
vapors and unpleasant odor. In higher concentrations they may cause irritation of the mucus membranes.
Fabrication areas should be ventilated to carry away fumes and vapors. Legislation on the control of emissions
and pollution prevention must be observed. If the principles of sound manufacturing practice are adhered to and
the place of work is well ventilated, no health hazards are involved in processing the material.
The material may burn when supplied with excess heat and oxygen. It should be handled and stored away from
contact with direct flames and/or ignition sources. In burning the material generates considerable heat and may
release a dense black smoke. Fires should be extinguished by heavy foams or dry powder. For further
information about safety in handling and processing please refer to the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS).

Storage
The material is packed in 25 kg bags or in bulk containers protecting it from contamination. Storage time of
material longer than 6 months may have a negative influence on the quality of the final product. It is generally
recommended to convert all materials latest within 6 months from delivery date. The material is subjected to
degradation by ultra-violet radiation or by high storage temperatures. Therefore the material must be protected
from direct sunlight, temperatures above 40°C and high atmospheric humidity during storage. Further
unfavorable storage conditions are large fluctuations in ambient temperature and high atmospheric humidity.
These conditions may lead to moisture condensing inside the packaging. Under these circumstances, it is
recommended to dry the material before use. TASNEE will not give any warranty to unfavorable storage
conditions which may lead to quality deterioration such as color change, bad smell and inferior product
performance.
