Product Description
Pro-fax EP445P, fully formulated medium flow impact polypropylene reactor copolymer is available in pellet form. This resin is typically used in injection molding applications requiring very good cold temperature impact resistance and stiffness/impact balance. In drop-weight impact testing conducted by Basell at -20°F, EP445P has shown very good impact performance.
