Polyethylene resins.


LL 4004EL is a linear low density polyethylene Linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) is a substantially linear polymer (polyethylene), with significant numbers of short branches, commonly made by copolymerization of ethylene with longer-chain olefins.  (LLDPE LLDPE Linear Low Density Polyethylene ) resin, designed for low-voltage power cable insulation. This resin is said to provide cable manufacturers with a balance of crosslinking speed and ease of processing for cost-competitive cable constructions.
