EXCEED LDPE
LD 653 Series (Low Density Polyethylene for injection molding applications)
Key features Recommended film extrusion conditions
LD 653 series are medium flow LDPE resin, characterized by high stiffness and good toughness.

Because of its melt-index , it is typically used for tough medium sized moldings, caps, bottle closures, toys and houseware.
Cylinder temperature :160-240°C
Mould temperature : 20 -50 °C
