Borealis HE1878E-C2

HE1878E-C2 is a high molecular weight, high density polyethylene specially designed for production of crosslinked  pipes (PE-X) 

Applications

HE1878E-C2 is recommended for the production of crosslinked pipes used in Plumbing Heating District heating Relining Industrial Domestic gas Domestic water  

Specifications 

HE1878E-C2 is intended to fulfill following standards and regulations, in case of appropriate industrial  manufacturing standard procedures applied and a continuous quality system is implemented. ASTM F 876 DIN 16892 EN ISO 15875 DIN 16893 

Special features 

HE1878E-C2 Is a pelletized material in minipellet form for the PE-Xa, peroxide crosslinking process. The material is  fully stabilized for the heating and plumbing application. Crosslinking agent (e.g. peroxide) has to be added by the  pipe manufacturer. Good crosslink response and well-balanced pellet size distribution enable effective soaking and  a stable pipe production. The material furthermore is accredited with the highest chlorine resistance rating available (Class 5 listing according  to ASTM F876).
