Key Characteristics:

  1. Melt Flow Index (MFI):

    • 0.43 - 0.28 gr/10 min: The MFI is within an ideal range for blow moulding, indicating that the resin has moderate flow properties. This makes it easy to process during extrusion and moulding without compromising the final product’s mechanical properties.
  2. Density:

    • 0.956 - 0.962 g/cm³: The resin has a moderate density, which strikes a good balance between strength and processability. The density ensures that the moulded product will be strong yet lightweight, making it suitable for packaging and various industrial applications.
  3. Impact Strength:

    • Minimum 25 kg·cm/cm (IZOD Impact): The high impact strength ensures that products manufactured with EX3PE100 can withstand mechanical stress and sudden impacts without cracking or breaking, making it ideal for robust applications like containers or industrial parts.
  4. Tensile Strength and Elongation:

    • Tensile Strength at Yield: Minimum 250 kg/cm²
    • Tensile Strength at Break: Minimum 290 kg/cm²
    • Elongation at Break: Minimum 900%
    • The combination of high tensile strength and exceptional elongation indicates that the resin exhibits excellent ductility and can undergo significant deformation without failure, ideal for blow moulded products that require flexibility and strength under stress.
  5. Thermal Properties:

    • Melting Point: 130 - 131°C
    • Softening Point: 125 - 128°C
    • These thermal properties make the resin suitable for high-temperature applications, especially where heat resistance is required, such as in packaging materials that need to withstand sterilization processes.
  6. Volatile Matter and Ash Content:

    • Volatile Matter: Maximum 0.05% wt
    • Ash Content: Maximum 0.06% wt
    • The low volatile matter content ensures minimal off-gassing during the moulding process, leading to cleaner final products. Similarly, low ash content means that there is minimal residue left after the material is processed, ensuring high-quality production standards.
  7. Chlorine and Titanium Content:

    • The low chlorine content (Maximum 60 ppm) is an important feature, especially for products used in food contact or medical applications, as chlorine can be a contaminant in those contexts.
    • Titanium content is also low (Maximum 6 ppm), which helps reduce any unwanted effects like degradation or discolouration during processing.
  8. Additives:

    • The resin contains Calcium Stearate (minimum 700 ppm) as a stabilizer and IRGAFOS 168 and IRGASNOS 1010 (minimum 140 ppm each) as UV stabilizers or antioxidants. These additives help enhance the durability of the end product, ensuring it has excellent long-term performance and resistance to oxidative degradation.
  9. Environmental Stress Crack Resistance (ESCR):

    • Minimum 15 hours (ASTM D-1693): The ESCR is a critical property for ensuring the resin resists cracking under environmental stress. This makes it an excellent choice for applications that will be exposed to outdoor elements or harsh environments.

Applications:

The EX3PE100 resin is particularly well-suited for blow moulding applications, where its combination of impact strengthtensile properties, and thermal stability ensures the production of durable, long-lasting parts. Common applications include:

  • Containers: Especially for industrial and consumer packaging products requiring high impact resistance and flexibility.
  • Automotive Parts: Blow moulded components in vehicles, such as tanks and housings.
  • Industrial Equipment: Parts that need high strength, durability, and resistance to environmental factors.
  • Packaging: Ideal for blow moulded bottles, containers, and packaging materials, where a balance of strengthflexibility, and light weight is crucial.

Conclusion:

EX3PE100 (HB 0035) is a versatile and high-performance resin that excels in blow moulding applications. With excellent mechanical propertiesimpact strength, and environmental resistance, it is an excellent choice for manufacturers seeking a reliable and durable material for high-stress applications. The combination of favorable thermal propertieslow volatile matter, and additive content ensures that products made with this resin will have excellent long-term performance and processing stability.
