Description
HEX 4460 PE80+
High Density Polyethylene
Product Description
HEX 4460 PE80+ is a high molecular weight, high-density polyethylene (HDPE) with high melt viscosity for extrusion. This grade, which is produced by 1-hexene co-monomer, is classified as PE 80+ and provides excellent stress crack resistance properties (ESCR) combined with very good long-term hydrostatic strength and good process-ability.

- Typical values: these are not to be construed as
- The density parameter was determined on compression-molded specimens, which were prepared in accordance with procedure C of ASTM D4703, Annex A1.
- Properties are based on compression-molded specimens, which were prepared in accordance with procedure B of ASTM D4703, Annex A1, using 100% HEX 4460 PE80+ resin.
- Values were obtained on 110mm, SDR11 pipe made with 100% HEX 4460 PE80+.
- Please note that, these processing conditions are recommended by manufacturer only for 100% HEX 4460 PE80+ resin (not in the case of blending with any other compatible material), therefore because of the many particular factors which are outside our current knowledge and control and may affect the use of product, no warranty is given for the foregoing data. Moreover, the specific recommendations for resin type and processing conditions can only be made when the end use, required properties and fabrication equipment are known.
