Plus5 PL 8549  Description

Plus5 PL 8549 is a nucleated, antistatic formulated, high fluidity heterophasic copolymer used for thin walled injection molding. Items made with " Plus5 PL 8549 "exhibit high stiffness, relatively good impact resistance and excellent antistatic properties. The finished items show good mechanical properties, and high dimensional stability. " Plus5 PL 8549 "is very well suited for the production of thin-walled articles or articles with long flow paths such as flower pots, containers, housewares, filters, filters housings and appliance 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.
