Description

HDPE B5308 is a multi-modal HMW HDPE grade specifically designed for blow molding floaters for floating photovoltaic (PV) panel systems. It has outstanding ESCR (environmental stress crack resistance), excellent mechanical properties, very good toughness and stiffness balance, long lifetime and easy blow molding processability. B5308 is also suitable for large size containers such as water tanks and transportation containers when high ESCR and toughness/stiffness balance is required.

This material data has been provided by Matmatch.

"Typical" values were obtained via a literature search. "Predicted" values were imputed via artificial intelligence technology. While we have placed significant efforts in ensuring data accuracy, "typical" and "predicted" data should be considered indicative and verified by appropriate material testing. Please do contact us if additional information on the the predicted data method is required.
All metrics apply to room temperature unless otherwise stated. SI units used unless otherwise stated.
Equivalent standards are similar to one or more standards provided by the supplier. Some equivalent standards may be stricter whereas others may be outside the bounds of the original standard.
