Borealis Bormod™ HC905TF Polypropylene Homopolymer for Thermoforming  (discontinued **)
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polypropylene (PP); Polypropylene, Molded

Material Notes: Bormod HC905TF is a low melt flow rate polypropylene homopolymer intended for thermoformed packaging applications. This homopolymer is produced using the Borealis Controlled Crystallinity Polypropylene (CCPP) technology. This provides a polypropylene with excellent processing consistency and its high crystallization temperature allows for reduced cycle time and increased output. Bormod HC905TF is suitable for both in-line and off-line thermoforming where it shows a wide processing window and gives very consistent shrinkage behavior after forming.

Bormod HC905TF is recommended for the following applications including highly transparent trays, cups and containers, houseware and thin wall packaging, margarine tubs and dairy containers, and blending with copolymers for lids.
