REPOL (POLYPROPYLENE)

REPOL - C015EG (IMPACT COPOLYMER)

Product Description and Applications

REPOL Polypropylene C015EG is manufactured using Unipol PP process which combines the production efficiency of gas phase fluidized bed reactor technology with the high activity and stereo specificity of the SHAC catalyst system.

REPOL C015EG is recommended for use in Blow Moulding and Extrusion processes where high impact strength is required. It is an ideal material for making blow moulded containers, sheets, automotive trims etc. 

Features

Repol C015EG is designed to provide 

  • Consistent  processability
  • Good stiffness-impact balance 
  • Good surface gloss
