What is DOW™ 20A HEALTH+™ Ultra-Pure Polyethylene?
An Ultra-Pure Polyethylene resin is characterized by low melt index and intermediate crystallinity. A unique polymerization process allows for the production of a very high purity product, vital for pharmaceutical applications.
Uses
Extrusion Blow / Fill / Seal vials, also known as "BFS vials".
Injection molded parts, in particular used in medical and pharmaceutical packaging.
Benefits
Outstanding flexibility and environmental stress crack resistance without the use of additives.
Shortens the purging time versus using only PE behind runs of ionomer and/or acid copolymers.
Lower odor and fuming compared to conventional purge compounds developed for other applications.
