HERCULINE SPECIFICATIONS
Premium Grade
Lining Material
Herculine linear low density polyethylene is produced from high quality LLDPE
resin. Herculine LLDPE has excellent chemical resistance, environmental stress
crack resistance, dimensional stability, and thermal aging characteristics.
Herculine LLDPE contains approximately 97.5 % polymer and 2.5% carbon black,
anti-oxidants and heat stabilizers and contains no additives, fillers or extenders.
