HP-200

Technical Data Sheet

Polypropylene Homopolymer

HP-200 is a Polypropylene certified prime resin designed for injection molding of thin-walled lightweight arti- cles. HP-200 combines good balance of good tensile strength with medium-high flow processability high stiff- ness, short cycling, good LTHS and excellent ESCR. HP-200 recommended processing temperature is between 220° to 240°C with mold at 20°-50°C. HP-200 complies with FDA regulation 21CFR 177.1520 and with most international regulations concerning the use of Polypropylene in contact with food. Specific certificates are avail- able upon request.
