Analysis of Key Properties

  1. Melt Flow Index (MFI):

    • The melt flow index (MFI) of 0.43 - 0.28 g/10 min indicates that the resin has moderate flow properties. This means that while it can be processed at reasonable speeds, it is not overly fluid, which helps ensure that molded parts retain shape and strength after cooling.
    • Application impact: This makes it suitable for blow moulding applications, where precise control over the material’s flow during the molding process is essential.
  2. Density:

    • Density of 0.956 - 0.962 g/cm³ is typical for HDPE and indicates a relatively high level of crystallinity and rigidity. This is ideal for ensuring strong, durable products.
    • Application impact: The density supports its use in applications requiring sturdy, resilient products such as containers, automotive components, and durable packaging.
  3. IZOD Impact Strength:

    • With a minimum of 25 kg·cm/cm, this resin provides excellent impact resistance. This makes it ideal for applications that may be subjected to physical stress or shock.
    • Application impact: Suitable for manufacturing robust containers, automotive parts, and products where impact resistance is critical.
  4. Tensile Strength at Break and Yield:

    • The resin has a tensile strength at break of at least 290 kg/cm² and tensile strength at yield of at least 250 kg/cm², ensuring good mechanical integrity and structural strength.
    • Application impact: These high tensile values allow the resin to withstand stretching and deformation under stress, ensuring that the final products retain their shape and performance.
  5. Elongation at Break:

    • An elongation at break of minimum 900% indicates that the resin is highly flexible and capable of withstanding significant deformation before failure.
    • Application impact: Ideal for blow moulded products, where flexibility is needed for durability and long-term use, especially in flexible containers or products exposed to constant use or vibration.
  6. Softening and Melting Points:

    • The melting point of 130-131°C and softening point of 125-128°C suggest that the resin maintains good thermal stability during processing and use, which is vital for blow moulding processes.
    • Application impact: These properties ensure that the material performs well under both processing conditions (during molding) and in end-use applications involving moderate heat exposure.
  7. Environmental Stress Crack Resistance (ESCR):

    • With a minimum of 15 hours, the material shows strong resistance to cracking under environmental stress, which is essential for long-lasting performance in various environmental conditions.
    • Application impact: This makes it a suitable choice for packaging, automotive, and industrial applications where the material may be exposed to environmental conditions that could lead to cracking or degradation over time.
  8. Chlorine and Titanium Content:

    • Chlorine content (max 60 ppm) and titanium content (max 6 ppm) are kept low, indicating minimal contamination from these elements, which could interfere with product quality or processing efficiency.
    • Application impact: This is especially important in food packaging and medical applications where material purity and safety are critical.

Key Features & Advantages:

  1. High Impact Strength: The resin’s high impact resistance ensures durability and resistance to cracking, even in challenging conditions.
  2. Flexibility and Elongation: The excellent elongation at break property ensures that blow moulded products remain intact under stress without breaking.
  3. Low Volatiles & Ash Content: These properties ensure cleaner processing, reducing the likelihood of contamination during production and yielding high-quality final products.
  4. Stability in Harsh Conditions: The low chlorine content and strong environmental stress crack resistance ensure that products can withstand exposure to harsh environments, making it ideal for outdoor and industrial use.

Applications:

  • Industrial Containers: The combination of mechanical strength, flexibility, and environmental stress crack resistance makes this material perfect for containers that need to endure heavy-duty use.
  • Automotive Parts: Its high impact strength and durability make it suitable for various automotive components, such as bumpers, panels, and other parts exposed to impact and wear.
  • Packaging Solutions: The flexibility and resistance to environmental stress cracking make it ideal for blow moulded packaging solutions, especially for products that require long-term durability.
  • Other Blow Moulded Products: The versatility of HB 0035 allows it to be used in a wide range of blow moulding applications, such as household products, toys, and other consumer goods.
