Eltex P CAP912 Ineos Polyolefins Polypropylene Random Copolymer

Product Description

Eltex® P CAP912 is a random copolymer polypropylene specially developed for caps and closures applications in direct contact with beverages. Eltex® P CAP912 has excellent organoleptic properties - taste & odour - which are guaranteed and is compliant with volatile organic compound requirements following EPA524.2; this provides ultra-clean packaging capability.
Eltex® P CAP912 is a medium ethylene content random copolymer with good balance of stiffness, impact and processing. It offers for the injection moulding of caps and closures high transparency, surface aspect quality and hinge resistance.
Applications
Caps and closures for the packaging of still beverages: water, juices, functionalized beverages, etc.
Benefits and Features

Good transparency

Good flow

Good mould release

Good hinge properties

Excellent and quality controlled organoleptic properties. In order to preserve the excellent organoleptic properties, it is important not to exceed a melt temperature of 250°C during processing.
