SABIC HP4023WN LDPE

SABIC HP4023WN is a low-density polyethylene (LDPE) resin designed for blown film extrusion. It offers a balance of processing, optical, and mechanical properties for general-purpose flexible packaging. The grade contains slip and antiblock additives to improve film handling and reduce blocking between layers.

With a typical melt flow rate of 4.0 g/10 min and a density of 0.923 g/cm³, HP4023WN provides key parameters for evaluating its suitability for specific film applications. It is commonly considered for clear laundry bags, textile packaging films, produce bags, and resealable bags.

Main Uses of SABIC HP4023WN

Clear Laundry Bags. Sabic HP4023WN can be considered for clear laundry bags and other lightweight bag applications. Its optical properties and film-handling characteristics support products that require a clean appearance and convenient opening during use.
Textile Packaging Films. The grade is suitable for evaluating in packaging films used for garments, fabrics, and other textile products. These films help protect contents from dust and facilitate packing, storage, and transportation.
Produce Bags. The resin is suitable for producing flexible bags for selected fruits, vegetables, and other agricultural products. Its optical properties help keep the contents visible, while its slip and antiblock additives support easier handling and filling. However, manufacturers should verify that the resin, processing conditions, and finished packaging meet the applicable food-contact regulations before using it for food packaging.
Resealable and Zipper Bags. HP4023WN can also serve as a material option for resealable and zipper bags. Its flexibility and surface characteristics support film handling during bag production. In addition, manufacturers should evaluate sealing strength, opening performance, and compatibility with the closure system. Before selecting the grade for a specific bag design, they should test the complete packaging structure to confirm that it meets the intended requirements.

Product Features of LLDPE HP4023WN

Processing Performance. LLDPE HP4023WN has a typical melt flow rate of 4.0 g/10 min, making it suitable for blown film extrusion. It supports the production of flexible packaging films, while actual processing performance depends on equipment configuration and operating conditions.
Optical Properties. This resin offers good optical performance for transparent film applications. Its clarity and surface gloss make it suitable for packaging that requires clear product visibility. Actual results vary with film thickness, cooling conditions, and processing parameters.
Slip and Antiblock Properties. The grade contains slip and antiblock additives to reduce friction between film surfaces and minimize blocking during storage and handling. These properties help improve film feeding, bag opening, and downstream packaging operations.
Mechanical Performance. HP4023WN provides a balance of tensile strength, elongation, and tear resistance for general-purpose flexible packaging. These properties help manufacturers evaluate its suitability for bags and packaging films, although finished-product performance depends on film thickness, orientation, and production conditions.
