5401GT Enhanced Polyethylene Resin is a copolymer produced via INSITE™ Technology from Dow. It offers extremely high impact resistance, combined with excellent tear, tensile and optical properties for high strength blown film applications. ELITE 5401GT Enhanced Polyethylene Resin offers a unique combination of low seal initiation temperature and high modulus and low blocking tendency for automatic packaging applications. ELITE 5401GT Enhanced Polyethylene Resin contains slip and antiblock additives.
