Product analysis:
High-density polyethylene 6040 UA is also known as SABIC-CC453, CC453G, and M453SE. HDPE 6040UA is an ultra-violet light stabilized high-density polyethylene consisting of long chains of ethylene monomers (CH2-CH2). The structure is linear with minimal branching, resulting in a dense, crystalline arrangement. This high crystallinity gives HDPE its characteristic strength and rigidity. This HDPE grade with narrow molecular weight distribution is designed for injection molding processes for heavy-duty parts for outdoor applications.
It has a density of 0.960 g/cm³ and a high-load melt flow index (MFI) of 3.9 (at 190°C/2.16 Kg). It is available in the form of granules (pellets). The additives used in HD6040UA include thermal antioxidants and catalyst neutralizers. Thermal antioxidants stabilize the polymer during processing and use by preventing heat-induced degradation. Catalyst neutralizers are used to deactivate any residual catalysts from the polymerization process, ensuring the final product is safe and stable. The Harmonized System code for 6040 is 39012000, and it is manufactured by Tabriz Petrochemical Company.
- Low warpage
Low warpage refers to the material’s ability to maintain its shape and dimensions during and after processing, with minimal deformation or distortion. This characteristic is important because it ensures that products made from polyethylene remain stable when exposed to varying temperatures or stresses.
- Good weathering resistance
This feature refers to the material’s ability to withstand prolonged exposure to environmental factors such as sunlight (UV radiation), moisture, and temperature fluctuations. It does so without significant degradation of its physical or chemical properties. This polyethylene maintains its structural integrity, color stability, and mechanical properties over extended periods of outdoor use.
- High Impact Resistance
High impact resistance ensures that the material can withstand sudden forces or shocks without cracking or breaking. This property is essential for products that need to endure rough handling and heavy loads.
- Good chemical resistance
Chemical resistance is crucial for materials used in environments where they may be exposed to various chemicals. This HDPE’s resistance to acids, alkalis, and organic solvents ensures that products made from 6040 maintain their integrity and performance in harsh conditions.
- UV stabilization
UV stabilization is important for products that will be exposed to sunlight for extended periods. It prevents degradation caused by UV radiation, ensuring the longevity and durability of outdoor products like large containers and pallets.
- Ease of processing
The ability to process the material easily during manufacturing affects production efficiency and cost. PE 6040’s properties make it suitable for injection molding, allowing manufacturers to produce high-quality, consistent products at scale.
- Excellent surface finish
An excellent surface finish refers to a product’s smooth, glossy, and defect-free surface appearance. This attribute is crucial because it enhances the aesthetic appeal of consumer goods, improves functional performance by reducing friction and facilitating cleaning, and indicates precise manufacturing processes.
