Product Description
Sub-group:
Random Copolymer Polypropylene

Description:
Maximum see-through clarity, minimal haze; superior color stability, process stability and gloss.

Applications:
Suggested uses include extrusion, blow molding, thermoforming, food containers, packaging. Ultraclear (TM) polypropylene resin offers unsurpassed clarity and performance, up to 50% improvement in haze over standard clarified products. If offers substitution opportunities versus more expensive resins such as PET, PVC, PC or PS.

Process:
Blow Molding.
