Marlex® HMN TR-938 - HMN TR-938G Polyethylene (MDPE)

Kayak recreational equipment

Marlex® HMN TR-938 / HMN TR-938G medium-density polyethylene (MDPE) is an ethylene-hexene copolymer tailored for rotational molding applications requiring a wide process window, excellent impact strength, good flow, excellent ESCR and long-term durability. The grade is available in pellet form (HMN TR-938) and 35 US mesh powder (HMN TR-938G) to fit different manufacturing setups.

Leveraging decades of polyethylene manufacturing expertise, CPChem produces Marlex® MDPE resins using advanced catalyst systems and rigorous process controls. This foundation delivers consistent resin quality, predictable processing behavior and reliable part performance across rotational molding operations.
