Borealis RF366MO Polypropylene Random Copolymer for Injection Molding
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polypropylene (PP); Polypropylene Copolymer

Material Notes: RF366MO is a specially modified highly-transparent polypropylene random copolymer with medium melt flow rate. This grade is designed for high-speed injection molding and contains nucleating and antistatic additives. The improved processability, even at low melt temperature, allows energy savings and faster cycle time. Products originating from this grade have excellent transparency, good organoleptic properties, good balance of stiffness and impact strength at ambient temperatures. These properties, together with high gloss, make this grade excellent choice for household and packaging articles. RF366MO can be also used in injection stretch blow molding (ISBM). RF366MO is intended for injection molding applications requiring excellent transparency, including thin wall packaging, houseware containers, caps and closures, sweet-boxes, cosmetics, appliances, and baby bottles.

Former trade name for this product was Borclear™.
