Product Description
TATREN TG 920 is a homopolymer of a narrow molecular weight distribution and medium thermal stability. TATREN TG 920 is designed for the production of BCF and staple fibres of medium deniers. It is also suitable for injection moulding of general purpose items, but not for thin wall products.

TATREN TG 920 can be also replaced by TATREN MG 925 for injection moulding applications.

TATREN TG 920 meets the requirements of the Slovak Hygienic Regulations for Contact with Foodstuffs, conforms to the Commission Directive 2002/72/EC, Art.2 in the simulants A, B, C and D specified in the Commission Directive 85/572/EEC when determined in accordance with the Commission Directives 82/711/EEC, 93/8/EEC, 97/48/EC and corresponds with the Health Regulations of Germany (BGVV), A VII (PP). The grade complies with the European Standard EN 71, part 3.
