I bought these to try them.  They are sold by quite a few sellers.  The common name seems to be Zolef, but different ads disagree on what they are made of.  Polyethylene or polypropylene ?

 

My main concern is that they are clear like those old sleeves that outgassed , stuck to covers, and misted up records.

Yes, but more than twice the price.  Hence my question - would you use the ones I have that I posted a link to.   I take it you are saying no?

Nope, not saying no. Just that I prefer to buy locally where feasible and I'm confident they would be benign. I can't provide any meaningful insights into what you've bought.

I'd avoid these!
