Borstar® FB1350

Description
Borstar FB1350 is a linear medium density polyethylene grade combining excellent extrusion properties with high
film stiffness.

Borstar FB1350 is well suited for mono- and coextrusion of films produced with high neck or low neck extrusion.

Applications
Borstar FB1350 has been developed especially for applications like:

Heavy-duty sack Refuse sacks and liners


General packaging Geomembranes
Pouches Blending

Additives
Borstar FB1350 contains antioxidant.

Processing Techniques
Borstar FB1350 is easily processed on conventional extruders.

Borstar FB1350 is best processed on conventional LDPE/HDPE or combination extruders. FB1350 is especially
developed for high strength, high stiffness Borstar grade. Conventional HDPE/LDPE die gaps 1,2-1,5 mm is
recommended and this will give the best balance between extruder melt pressure and physical film properties.

Recommended melt temperature range is from 190°C to 210°C. Due to differences in screw and die head designs,
the optimum temperature adjustments are individual and should be sought for each production line.

With suitable equipment Borstar FB1350 can be drawn down to 15 micron as mono film.

Storage
Borstar FB1350 should be stored in dry conditions at temperatures below 50°C and protected from UV-light.
Improper storage can initiate degradation, which results in odour generation and colour changes and can have
negative effects on the physical properties of this product.
