LLDPE LL 6201XR

EXXONMOBIL™ LL 6201XR, a cutting-edge Linear Low-Density Polyethylene (LLDPE) resin from ExxonMobil Chemical, represents a significant advancement in film extrusion technology. This hexene (C6) copolymer is specifically engineered to deliver an exceptional balance of mechanical strength, superior optical properties, and enhanced processability, making it the ideal choice for high-performance flexible packaging and demanding film applications.

Leveraging ExxonMobil’s proprietary technology, LL 6201XR enables manufacturers to achieve higher output rates and produce films with excellent toughness, puncture resistance, and clarity. Its optimized formulation ensures superior bubble stability in blown film, translating to increased efficiency and consistent quality in your manufacturing operations.

Key Features & Benefits:

  • Exceptional Toughness and Puncture Resistance: Provides outstanding resistance to tears and punctures, ensuring superior film integrity and robust protection for packaged goods, even under challenging conditions.
  • Enhanced Processability & Bubble Stability: Optimized for high-speed blown film operations, this grade offers excellent melt strength and bubble stability, contributing to increased throughput, reduced processing issues, and consistent film quality.
  • Superior Optical Properties: As a hexene LLDPE, it delivers improved clarity and gloss compared to many butene LLDPEs, making it ideal for visually appealing packaging that highlights the product within.
  • Good Heat Seal Strength: Offers reliable and consistent heat sealing performance, crucial for secure package integrity and high-speed form-fill-seal (FFS) applications.
  • Excellent Drawdown Capability: Allows for the production of thinner films without compromising mechanical properties, leading to significant material savings and reduced environmental impact.
  • Versatile Application Profile: Can be used effectively as a monofilament or in blends with other polyethylenes (LDPE, HDPE) to fine-tune film properties for diverse end-uses.

Typical Properties (Representative Values):

Please note that specific values may vary slightly depending on the exact production batch and testing conditions. Always refer to the official Technical Data Sheet (TDS) from ExxonMobil Chemical for the most accurate and up-to-date information.

  • Melt Index (MI) (190°C / 2.16 kg): ~1.0 g/10 min (ASTM D1238)
  • Density: ~0.918 g/cm³ (ASTM D1505)
  • Tensile Strength @ Yield (MD/TD): ~9 / 8 MPa (ASTM D882)
  • Tensile Strength @ Break (MD/TD): ~30 / 25 MPa (ASTM D882)
  • Elongation @ Break (MD/TD): ~500 / 600 % (ASTM D882)
  • Dart Drop Impact Strength (F50): >600 g (ASTM D1709, Method A)
  • Elmendorf Tear Strength (MD/TD): ~200 / 400 g/mil (ASTM D1922)
  • Vicat Softening Point (A): ~95 °C (ASTM D1525)

Processing Guidelines (Film Extrusion – General):

  • Drying: Generally not required for LLDPE, but proper storage to prevent moisture pick-up is recommended.
  • Melt Temperature: 190 – 220 °C (optimize based on extruder type, die design, and desired film properties).
  • Die Gap: Typically 0.8 – 1.2 mm for blown film.
  • Blow-Up Ratio (BUR): 2.0 – 3.0:1 (for blown film, optimize for balance of properties).
  • Cooling: Ensure efficient cooling for optimal film properties and clarity.

Packaging & Storage:

EXXONMOBIL™ LL 6201XR is typically supplied in 25 kg bags or bulk containers. For optimal product quality and to prevent contamination, store in a dry, cool, and well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Keep packaging sealed until ready for use.
