Materials: On the material side, advanced HDPE resin designs and formulations provide performance characteristics that enable this leap forward in packaging sustainability. Modern resins provide ...

As a result, this method improved the oxidation induction time (OIT) and the environmental stress cracking resistance (ESCR) value of HDPE compared with the traditional one-step extrusion method.

The newly revised ASTM F2160 standard helps to ensure that HDPE conduit will stand up to tough installations ... improved slow crack growth resistance (ESCR) is required, and there is also the ...
