FLEXOMER Very Low Density Polyethylene (VLDPE) Resins

FLEXOMER™ Resins are very low density, extremely flexible olefin copolymers that deliver additional flexibility to blown film, providing an opportunity for converters to run thinner single layer, multi-layer or thick films, on existing lines, at faster output rates.

FLEXOMER Resins bridge the gap between plastics and rubber, and provide excellent strength, toughness and flexibility over a wide range of temperatures and, when blended or co-extruded with other polymers, delivers improved toughness, tear, dart impact and puncture resistance. They are used for hose and tubing, ice and frozen food bags, food packaging and stretch wrap, as well as impact modifiers when blended with other polymers.

FLEXOMER Resins for alloys and blends provide superior performance differentiation and compounding versatility, providing an opportunity for formulators to expand existing product lines to include a range of new compounds. When used with traditional polyolefins, FLEXOMER Resins from The Dow Chemical Company (Dow) deliver added protection, improved elasticity, good impact resistance and stress dispersion — all at a competitive price.
