LLDPE SABIC 218BJ features a carefully engineered additive system, making it suitable for a wide range of food contact applications (free from TNPP). This grade exhibits excellent thermal stability and processability, especially under demanding extrusion conditions. As a linear low-density polyethylene, LLDPE 218BJ offers higher strength, superior impact resistance, and improved thermal performance compared with conventional LDPE resin, making it ideal for film and packaging applications.

Typical Applications of LLDPE SABIC 218BJ

  • Food packaging films (laminated or barrier films).
  • Heat-seal and hot-melt films.
  • Hand or pallet stretch films (industrial packaging).
  • General-purpose blown or cast films, either as a standalone resin or in blends.

Material Highlights

  • Balanced performance: excellent thermal stability, toughness, and filmability.
  • High elongation and impact strength for protective film applications.
  • Excellent clarity and transparency.
  • Food contact safe formulation, free of TNPP.

Processing & Handling Recommendations

  1. Processing Methods: Blown film, cast film, and extrusion.
  2. Processing Tips: Adjust melt temperature, die gap, and blowing parameters to achieve uniform film thickness and optimal film properties.
  3. Storage: Protect from prolonged heat or direct sunlight to maintain material performance.
