Exxon Mobil Launches Linear Low Density Polyethylene

ExxonMobil (USA) has recently developed two new grades of "Linear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE)" "Exceed1008LC" and "Exceed 1008LE" for high-quality composite films and coextruded multilayer films. This is an improved product of the company's existing low-gel LLDPE grades "Exceed1008CA" and "Exceed1008EB". Grades with low gel content are easy to process, and processed films have better optical properties, sealing properties, and greater tear resistance. The two newly developed analytical tests have shown that the gel content has been reduced to fully meet the production and quality requirements for composite and coextruded films. The large gel content is almost zero with only a small amount of small gels. It is identical to the general gel content grades in terms of processability, film properties, and compliance with food regulatory requirements. Therefore, the processing plant and the end-user can directly use it to replace the old product without the need for performance testing and certification of the new brand.
