CONTINUUM™ Bimodal Polyethylene Resins
Bimodal technology: Stronger pipes, bottles, caps and closure components
CONTINUUM™ Bimodal Polyethylene Resins provide proven, trusted performance across a wide range of applications including piping, bottle and cap and closure components. Each combines incredible toughness, long-term durability and exceptional flexibility within a single, sustainable solution, delivering the qualities and capabilities processors, manufacturers, brands and consumers require.
Discover the difference
CONTINUUM™ Resins, made using UNIPOL™ II Technology, offer increased polymer design flexibility, a broad molecular weight range, and a wider range of high-performance characteristics. These advantages set it apart from traditional unimodal Polyethylene (PE). This leads to better batch-to-batch consistency, higher efficiency, and lower scrap rates. CONTINUUM™ Resins also offer outstanding performance for pipe, bottles, caps and closures, durable goods, and supports sustainability efforts.
Building better infrastructure
Aging, deteriorating infrastructure and the need for increased sustainability are major, global concerns. CONTINUUM™ Resins deliver exceptional toughness and durability for long-term pipeline performance in any climate. With high elevated temperature and pressure ratings, resistance to crack growth, and broad operating windows, they meet industry standards for municipal, utility and industrial pipeline applications including portable water and natural gas and water distribution, oil and gas gathering, telecom conduit, mining, drainage, and more.
Our rich portfolio of high density polyethylene (HDPE) and medium density polyethylene (MDPE) resins allows production of a broad range of pipe diameters and thicknesses with opportunities for downgauging.
Strong fusion capabilities to help produce seamless, virtually leak-free pipelines without mechanical fittings or gaskets, which tend to corrode and leak over time.
Low thermal conductivity for more uniform system temperatures and less need for insulation.
Excellent seismic resistance for improved protection with the potential for reduced repair costs and economic impact in the event of an earthquake.
Good resistance to ultraviolet (UV) light degradation.
