Low Density Polyethylene Resin LDPE 0025 from China
This is a standard low density polyethylene (LDPE) resin with a melt index of 25 g/10 min and specific gravity below 0.94, excluding linear variants. It meets HTS 3901.10.5020 as it is a polyethylene polymer where ethylene monomer units contribute over 95% by weight. Primarily used in film blowing for plastic bags and packaging.

Import Tips
• Verify specific gravity <0.94 and ethylene content >95% via lab testing to confirm non-LLDPE classification
• Provide manufacturer's spec sheets showing melt index and density
• Avoid misclassification as LLDPE (3901.10.50.40) by documenting non-linear structure
