F5101
Aramco HDPE F5101 is a high molecular weight high density polyethylene resin and is typically used in for blown film
process especially for thin film applications. This resin has broad molecular weight distribution that makes it easier to
process. Films made from this resin typically exhibits high stiffness with excellent impact and toughness characteristics.
