Product Description
BD950MO is a heterophasic copolymer. This grade is intended for compression and injection moulding. The main features of this grade are good stiffness and impact resistance, very good processability, high melt strength and extremely low tendency to stress whitening.

This grade uses Borealis Nucleation Technology (BNT) to increase productivity by cycle time reduction. As with all BNT grades, products exhibit excellent dimensional consistency with different colorants. In addition, this grade provides excellent creep resistance and optimum stiffness-impact balance. This polymer contains slip and antistatic additives to ensure good demoulding properties, low dust attraction and low friction coefficient which meets the industry standards for closure opening torques.
