Description

Plus 5 PR 2048 is a high melt flow rate, nucleated heterophasic copolymer with a special antistatic additivities used for thin-wall injection molding, IML and houseware applications. The product features improved balance of mechanical properties. The use of ″ Plus 5 PR 2048″ allows high productivity due to the easy mold filling and short cycle times. In comparison with conventional copolymers with the same MFR and the same toughness, ″ Plus 5 PR 2048″ exhibits 15% higher rigidity. ″ Plus 5 PR 2048″ is suitable for food contact.

Heterophasic poly(propylene) copolymers obtained by sequential polymerization are multi-component products formed by a crystalline matrix of poly(propylene) and an ethylene-propylene rubber phase. Some crystalline polyethylene and poly(ethylene-co-propylene) are formed in the rubber synthesis step by copolymerization of ethylene and propylene. These multi-component systems present a complicated microstructure and heterophasic morphology.
