Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If standard extrusion coating LDPE
Most coating grades have lower viscosity optimized for higher line speeds.
If already coated onto paper
Paper coated with ≤15gsm plastics classifies as converted paper, not polymer.
If printing ink vehicle
PE used as printing ink carrier classifies as ink, not primary polymer.
