SCGC’s breakthrough and patented Multi-Modal SMX™ Technology helps strengthen HDPE resins through perfect balance between high strength and stiffness properties to enhance end products durability, resulted in ability to reduce finished product thickness and product weight while maintain functional properties leading to less CO₂ emission.
With our superior technology, SCGC innovates wide range of product including film, small blow packaging, caps & closures, pipe, water storage tank, floating dock, floating solar pontoon application.
Dramatically increases resin strength, allowing manufacturers to reduce wall thickness and material consumption by 6% to 20% while keeping mechanical performance intact.
Offers an optimal balance of high melt strength, stiffness, impact resistance, and processability.
Lighter products require less energy during transportation and lower carbon dioxide emissions across their lifecycle.
Facilitates the creation of mono-material packaging (using a single type of plastic polymer), which makes recycling much easier compared to multi-layer or multi-material structures.
What is SMX™ Technology?
SMX™ Technology is SCGC’s advanced multi-modal HDPE technology. It is designed with high molecular weight and a broad molecular weight distribution to deliver enhanced overall performance.
What is molecular weight distribution, and why is it important?
Molecular weight distribution describes the range of polymer chain lengths within a material. By controlling this distribution, SMX™ Technology can help achieve an optimized balance between processing performance and end-product properties.
What are the key strengths of HDPE from SMX™ Technology?
HDPE from SMX™ Technology offers a well-balanced combination of processability, stiffness, toughness, and mechanical properties in one material platform. This helps manufacturers achieve strong product performance while maintaining efficient product quality.
What applications can SMX™ Technology be used for, and what benefits does it offer?
SMX™ Technology can be applied to a wide range of products, including film, small blow packaging, large blow packaging, caps & closures, pipe, and water storage tank applications.
It is developed to support excellent performance across these applications by giving converters a strong balance of processing efficiency and end-use durability. These advantages make products stronger and more durable, while also enabling lightweighting — reducing product weight without compromising performance.
How does HDPE resin from SMX™ Technology support sustainability?
HDPE resin made with SMX™ Technology supports sustainability by offering a balanced set of strength-related properties that help products last longer and perform better over time.
Because the material provides higher strength and durability, products can be designed with less plastic through lightweighting while still maintaining excellent performance. This helps reduce overall material usage, lower CO2 emissions, and contribute to lower GHG emissions across the product lifecycle.
