ExxonMobil Signature Polymers has introduced its Exceed Tough m 4536UV12, a polyethylene resin designed for rotational molding applications such as storage and septic tanks, containers and housings, recreational and marine gear as well as playground equipment.
The company says it delivers outstanding impact performance, excellent environmental stress crack resistance (ESCR), and broad processing flexibility, making it a versatile choice for manufacturers of durable molded products.
Key benefits
Outstanding impact performance: Delivers superior ARM impact strength, while maintaining a stiffness-toughness balance.
High ESCR performance: Helps improve resistance to cracking and environmental stressors, extending service life in demanding use conditions.
Broad processing window: A lower PIAT and wider operating window help enable earlier material coalescence, shorter oven cycles, improved processing tolerance and lower energy usage resulting in more consistent quality with enhanced processing efficiency.
Core technical characteristics include a density of 0.936 g/cm³, melt index of 4.5 g/10 min, peak melting temperature of 255°F, UV12 rating, metallocene catalyst, and ethylene-1-hexene copolymer composition. These properties enhance durability, processing efficiency, and overall performance across various rotational molding applications.
ExxonMobil, one of the largest publicly traded international energy companies, uses technology and innovation to help meet the world’s growing energy needs. ExxonMobil Signature Polymers brings together ExxonMobil’s polyolefin products under a single portfolio brand, simplifying portfolio navigation and promoting enhanced collaboration across the value chain.
