Notes

1) Moisture content was measured with an infrared moisture analyzer at 105°C for 10 minutes. 2) Mechanical properties were measured on injection molded parts made directly from the 50% NuPlastiQ / 50% polyethylene masterbatch. 3) The reported film properties are for a monolayer blown film that was let-down with 50% additional HDPE to a concentration of 25% NuPlastiQ. The thickness was 1.0 mil, and the blow-up ratio was 2.5:1. 4) These values are typical properties only and should not be used for specification purposes. End users should confirm results with their own tests.

Storage and Drying

BioLogiQ BioBlends are dried after production and shipped in sealed moisture-proof bags that are ready to use as supplied. They should be stored indoors in the sealed container away from heat until used.; If pellets are exposed to a humid environment, they will absorb moisture from the air. If needed, dry pellets by introducing warm dry air at no more than 80°C for 1-4 hours.; The estimated moisture content of a BioLogiQ BioBlend can be measured with an infrared moisture analyzer at 105°C for 10 minutes. The result of the measurement will not perfectly equal the moisture content, due to possible partial evaporation of plasticizer. The result from this test should be <0.5% moisture prior to processing.
