Product Description
"Pro-fax" 6301S general-purpose polypropylene homopolymer resin is available in spherical particle form. Spherical form resin is well suited for mixing with pigments and other additives to make polymer concentrates or masterbatches. This resin has very minimal stabilization, which allows wide design latitude for the compounder. Additional suitable stabilization is required to protect the resin during melt processing and throughout its useful life.

"Pro-fax" 6301S spherical resin meets FDA requirements in the Code of Federal Regulations, 21 CFR 177.1520 for food contact, including cooking applications. Please note that any additives compounded into this resin will require a re-assessment of its FDA status.

All ingredients meet the chemical registration requirements of TSCA (U.S.) and DSL (Canada).
