Applications
MXSTEN CM27051-F is an extra low density polyethylene containing no slip, high antiblock and high processing aid. It is designed for blown film applications and is well suited for hygienic films and industrial packaging applications. CM27051-F works well as an enhancer in applications which require low temperature sealing, soft product feel and good lot-to-lot consistency. Films produced using CM27051-F exhibit superior, balanced tear resistance as well as low imperfections.
