Description

MFI 3713

Medium Density Polyethylene

Product Description

MFI 3713 is a medium density polyethylene, which has a broad molecular weight distribution and high melt strength. This product which is produced by 1-hexene as a comonomer, specially designed for producing thin films with high tear resistance, good seal-ability, high strength and high draw down. This product is suitable for manufacturing of high strength carrier bags and high quality thin films for uni/multi-wall packaging. MFI 3713 has been manufactured under Basell license.

  1. Typical values: these are not to be construed as
  2. The density parameter was determined on compression-molded specimens, which were prepared in accordance with procedure C of ASTM D4703, Annex A1.
  3. Properties are based on 20 μm blown film produced at a melt temperature of 220°C and 3 BUR using 100% MFI 3713 resin. Modulus property is based on compression-molded specimens, which were prepared in accordance with procedure B of ASTM D4703, Annex
  4. Please note that, these processing conditions are recommended by manufacturer only for 100% MFI 3713 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 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.
