Microlin XL28

Microlin XL28 is a chemically crosslinkable polyethylene which produces a finished molding of improved properties with the use of conventional rotational molding equipment. Properties enhanced include toughness (particularly low-temperature impact performance), environmental stress crack resistance, chemical and temperature resistance. Typical uses of this material include fuel tanks, urea tanks and stretchers where the rigidity of longer moldings is critical.
