DOWLEX™ GM 8091 Polyethylene Resin is a next generation linear low density polyethylene resin designed for high quality blown film applications requiring a combination of excellent optical properties, tear strength and sealability, and a very good toughness/stiffness balance DOWLEX™ GM 8091 Polyethylene Resin is also designed to offer a very high processability and very low gel level making it ideal for use in lamination films and other specialty packaging.
Note: DOWLEX™ GM 8091 Polyethylene Resin should comply with FDA regulation 177.1520 and with most European food contact regulations when used unmodified and processed according to good manufacturing practices for food contact applications. Please, contact your nearest Dow office regarding food contact compliance statements. The purchaser remains responsible for determining whether the use complies with all relevant regulations.
Applications:
High clarity tissue overwrap
Produce bags
Food packaging films
Lamination film
Complies with:
EU, 10/2011
U.S. FDA FCN 1539
