Material Notes:
TU3001 is a low-density polyethylene (LDPE) with high molecular weight, excellent mechanical properties, and good processability. These qualities ensure the production of films with uniform thickness. TU3001 resin is stabilized with a hindered amine (HALS) and antioxidants which warrant high resistance to aging caused by exposure to solar radiation. Films manufactured with TU3001 are colorless and have high light transmission. The films produced are transparent but not thermal. This product is identified as PE 115 according to ASTM D-4976-04a standard specification. It contains antioxidant and anti-UV additives. Its applications include films for greenhouses and other films for applications that require high mechanical strength and high resistance to aging from solar radiation (UV radiation exposure). Films manufactured with TU3001 have a minimum duration expectancy of 18 months (two winters and one summer) for continuing use in a greenhouse with a maximum solar radiation of 150 kLy (kcal/cm²/year) and at least 130µm. The suitable durability refers to the retention of at least 50% of the original mechanical resistance of a film produced with pure TU3001. The UV stabilizer used in TU3001 presents great chemical resistance for a range of pesticides, although compounds which have sulfur and halogens can reduce the films' shelf life.
