Product Description
TATREN HE 2 83 is polypropylene homopolymer intended for extrusion & thermoforming. Low melt flow rate of this grade, proper MWD in a combination with nucleation makes the grade convenient for in- line as well as off-line thermoforming.

Products made from HE 2 83 shows very good contact clarity, very high stiffness, very high heat resistance and good impact properties. HE 2 83 has high crystallization temperature allowing high de-moulding temperature, reduced cooling time, leading to increased output.

Applications:
  • Transparent and glossy trays and cups
  • Houseware and thin wall packaging
  • Margarine tubs & yogurt cups
