Product Description
"Metocene" X50182 is a metallocene-catalysed propylene polymer for injection moulding applications. "Metocene" X50182 is nucleated and antistatic additivated. "Metocene" X50182 is a development grade.

It exhibits a very high stiffness combined with an excellent transparency and outstanding organoleptic properties. Its very narrow molecular weight distribution makes it particularly suitable for distortion-free mouldings.

"Metocene" X50182 is applied in highly transparent, high rigidity items such as e.g. catering trays, coat-hangers and injection stretch blow moulded bottle applications.
