Mxsten® Plastomers

Mxsten Plastomers are the lowest density Ziegler-Natta hexene based linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) in the world. Mxsten Plastomers exhibit exceptionally balanced MD and TD properties along with superior low temperature dart impact strength properties. Mxsten Plastomers have excellent seal strength at low initiation temperatures which allows processors to run faster line speeds on their form, fill and seal machines. For such a low density polymer, Mxsten Plastomers have unique stiffness properties which makes it an ideal choice for stand-up and thermoformed pouches. Mxsten Plastomers meet FDA regulation 21 CFR 177.1520 and are a preferred resin for the flexible food packaging convertors. In addition to Mxsten Plastomers, Westlake's quality food packaging film resins include Hifor®, Hifor Clear® and Hifor Xtreme® polyethylenes.
