Eltex® HD5240EA-B is a high-density polyethylene copolymer grade with a narrow molecular weight distribution, specially developed for injection of caps & closures applications requiring good environmental stress cracking resistance. Thanks to high purity and excellent organoleptic properties, this grade is particularly intended for the packaging in direct contact with beverages.
Typical applications
- Caps & closures for the packaging of still mineral water, functionalized beverages and slightly carbonated or pressurized beverages
Benefits and Features
- Good environmental stress cracking resistance
- Excellent, quality controlled organoleptic properties. In order to preserve the excellent organoleptic properties, it is important not to exceed a melt temperature of 250°C duringprocessing.
