A Closer Look at HDPE Injection Grades for Durable Consumer and Industrial Products

Introduction

High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) is a versatile thermoplastic widely used in manufacturing due to its robustness, moldability, and resistance to impact. Oxizan offers a range of HDPE injection grades, each tailored for specific applications in the consumer and industrial sectors. This article explores the unique characteristics of these HDPE grades and discusses their suitability for various applications.



Analysis of HDPE Injection Grades

1. HD52505UV (JAM)


  • Melt Flow Rate (MFR): 5 g/10 min

  • Density: 0.952 g/cm³

  • Applications: Primarily used for products such as fish boxes, crates, tote boxes, and housewares.

  • Unique Feature: This grade offers UV stabilization, enhancing the longevity of products used outdoors by protecting them from UV degradation.


2. HD6070UA (Tabriz)


  • MFR: 7 g/10 min

  • Density: 0.958 g/cm³

  • Applications: Suitable for fish boxes, crates, and housewares, providing slightly higher fluidity during molding, which is ideal for intricate designs.

  • Unique Feature: Manufactured by Tabriz, this grade provides enhanced strength and stiffness, making it suitable for items that require durability under mechanical stress.


3. HD60507UV (JAM)


  • MFR: 7.5 g/10 min

  • Density: 0.558 g/cm³

  • Applications: Used for similar products as other grades but is particularly noted for its exceptionally low density, making it unique for lightweight applications without compromising strength.

  • Unique Feature: The highest MFR among the listed grades allows for faster production cycles.


4. HD52511 (JAM)


  • MFR: 3 g/10 min

  • Density: 0.952 g/cm³

  • Applications: Ideal for heavy-duty containers that need to withstand tough conditions.

  • Unique Feature: Offers the lowest MFR, which correlates with high molecular weight, providing increased durability and toughness.


5. HD52518 (JAM)


  • MFR: 18 g/10 min

  • Density: 0.952 g/cm³

  • Applications: This grade facilitates high-volume manufacturing processes due to its high MFR, ideal for products requiring frequent handling.

  • Unique Feature: Strikes a balance between ease of flow in molding processes and maintaining product integrity.


6. HD52528 (JAM)


  • MFR: 28 g/10 min

  • Density: 0.925 g/cm³

  • Applications: Designed for the fastest processing times among the grades, suitable for mass production environments.

  • Unique Feature: Its lower density allows for the production of lighter products that still need to maintain a degree of structural strength.


Conclusion

Choosing the right HDPE grade is crucial for achieving the desired product characteristics in terms of durability, resistance, and efficiency in production. Each grade offered by JAM and Tabriz has been developed to meet specific industry needs, ensuring that businesses can select the most appropriate material for their products. From lightweight, highly durable items to products requiring fast production cycles, these HDPE grades provide a range of options that enhance product quality and manufacturing performance.
