Resinex RX 820

About this product

Overview:

RX 820 is based on Sabic R50035EE LLDPE and is the code we use when we make colours and special effects
RX 806 is reserved for Natural and Black only.

When we use Sabic R50035EE to make colours or special effects, the resulting product is named:
RX 820 "colour" xxxx (xxxx is a unique 4 digit number for that colour).

There are many versions of RX 820 available, Colour compounds, Colour dry-blends, Special Effects, etc
Some grades have special approvals.
Please check the documents to see which grade has what aproval.

Applications / Grade Selection:

As with all rotomoulding applications, segmentation by application type is far too specific since the range of grades is so limited.
We can divide the whole of the roto market into 3 segments:

1. Large Tanks
2. Specialities e.g. Boats and Kayaks, Flare Retardant, Conductives, Foamm etc
3. Everything else

For large tanks, a typical tank grade should be used e.g. Dowlex NG2432UE or XZ89342.00
For everything else, either Dowlex 2629UE or Dowlex 2631UE should be used.
2629 has lower flow so will be tougher, and 2631 will allow more complex shapes to be moulded.

The starting point is also to counter-type what is currently being used.
RX 820 is C4 countertype to either Dowlex 2629.10UE or 2631.10UE

Typical Datasheet Information:

RX 820 Polyethylene Resin is designed for general purpose rotational moulding applications and is suitable
for applications requiring good environmental stress cracking resistance and impact strength combined with low warping
and excellent processability.
RX 820 is fully heat and UV stabilised resulting in a very wide processing latitude, good colour retention and
long life expectancy.
