LyondellBasell Alathon® M6080WC High Density Polyethylene

ApplicationsALATHON M 6080WC is a natural, high density, polyethylene homopolymer resin with a narrow molecular weight distribution formulated for use as primary insulation for coaxial and control cable applications including gas-injected or chemically expanded insulation. This resin provides enhanced processability and stiffness and exhibits excellent color, low odor and good processing stability.Processing TechniquesM 6080WC, like other thermoplastic polyolefin resins, can be extruded as wire and cable insulation using a conventional extruder. Below are suggested extrusion conditions for M 6080WC. These conditions are intended as general guidelines only and are not optimum values, since manufacturing conditions such as extruder type and size affect the processing of thermoplastic resins.This product is from the former Equistar product line.
