Lotrene FD0474 is a premium low-density polyethylene (LDPE) film grade resin designed for high-clarity film applications. Produced using advanced polymerization technology, this grade offers an excellent balance of optical properties, mechanical strength, and processability. It is particularly well suited for blown and cast film extrusion, where superior transparency and surface appearance are required.

Performance Characteristics

  • Excellent Optical Properties. Lotrene FD0474 delivers outstanding film aesthetics with high clarity, low haze, and high gloss, making it ideal for premium packaging and display applications.
  • Good Processability. With a medium melt flow index (MFI ~4), this resin ensures smooth extrusion, stable bubble formation in blown film, and compatibility with high-production operations.
  • Built-in Additive Package. The resin contains a balanced system of antiblock agents, slip agents, and antioxidants, providing excellent film handling, low friction, and consistent processing performance.
  • Balanced Mechanical Properties. FD0474 combines flexibility and strength, offering good impact resistance, high elongation at break, and reliable tear strength for thin film applications.

Primary Uses

  • High Clarity Films. This grade is ideal for display packaging films and premium product wrapping, offering outstanding transparency, low haze, and high gloss to enhance product visibility and shelf appeal.
  • Consumer Packaging. It is commonly used for garment bags, laundry bags, retail bags, and flower packaging films, providing good flexibility, durability, and processing stability.
  • Food Packaging. LDPE FD0474 is also suitable for food-related applications such as bread bags, frozen food packaging, and zip-lock bags, ensuring reliable performance and compliance with food contact standards.

Storage & Handling

  • Store in a dry, well-ventilated environment.
  • Protect from direct sunlight and heat.
  • Keep in original packaging or clean silos.
  • Recommended to use within 3 months after delivery.
