Product Description
PPC-57-1.4-N is a polypropylene impact copolymer formulated for injection molding applications that require a balance of fast fill, impact strength and stiffness. It offers the benefits of gas-phase technology along with a balance of stiffness, impact strength and gloss.
PPC-57-1.4-N contains a mold release and nucleating agents and exhibits excellent organoleptics.
PPC-57-1.4-N meets the requirements of the Food and Drug Administration, 21 CFR Section 177.1520. This regulation allows the use of this olefin polymer in "...articles or components of articles intended for use in contact with food." Specific limitations may apply.
