Product Description
"Clyrell" RC213M is a alpha olefin modified polypropylene random copolymer especially designed for cast film technology. It offers an excellent clarity and gloss, a very low haze, a wide hot tack range and a low seal-initiation temperature of 120°C. It is designed for quality packaging applications, either as monolayer film or as welding layer in coextruded structures and is in particular suitable for printing and metallisation purpose. "Clyrell" RC213M is easy processable on commercial cast film equipment. It contains antiblock additives.
"Clyrell" RC213M is suitable for food contact.
