Applications
MXSTEN CM27072-F is an extra low density polyethylene containing no slip and medium antiblock levels along with processing aid. It is designed for blown film applications and is suited for hygenic films, stretch films and industrial packaging applications. CM27072-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 CM27072-F exhibit superior, balance tear resistance as well as low imperfections.
