Product Description
Purell RP378T is a polypropylene random copolymer with nucleation and anti-electrostatic agent. It exhibits a very good flowability and a good transparency.

Purell RP378T is used for injection moulding medical and pharmaceutical applications only after approval by LyondellBasell.

Purell RP378T is suitable for food contact.

Without exception, all potential activities for applications in the pharmaceutical, medical device, laboratory and diagnostics area have to be discussed with the relevant Technical (P & AD) and Business contacts first.
