Pro-Fax RP223L

LyondellBasell

Description

Pro-fax RP223L is a medium melt flow rate polypropylene random copolymer available in pellet form.  This resin is typically used in cast and oriented film applications.  In film applications it offers exceptional clarity, gloss, improved cold temperature impact resistance and lower and broader heat sealing properties as compared to conventional polypropylene homopolymer.  Pro-fax RP223L is a barefoot resin with no slip, anti-block or other property specific additives.  This product is manufactured with a non-phthalate catalyst system and is produced without animal derived components.
