Braskem INSPIRE™ 114 Performance Polypropylene Polymer
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polypropylene (PP); Polypropylene, Blow Molding Grade; Polypropylene, Extrusion Grade; Polypropylene, Impact Modified; Molded/Extruded; Polypropylene, Sheet/Thermoforming Grade

Material Notes:
    Overview
  • High melt strength
  • High toughness
  • Excellent processability
  • High impact and puncture resistance
  • High film stiffness/machinability
  • High heat resistance
  • Complies with U.S. FDA FCN 843, Europe EU-Directive 2002/72/EC

INSPIRE™ 144 Performance Polymer is intended for use in blown film extrusion. Film produced from this resin offers improved stiffness, heat resistance, creep resistance, puncture strength and toughness over competitive polyethylene films. Coextruded structures offer a broad range of potential properties including high stiffness, high clarity, excellent sealability and good barrier properties. INSPIRE 114 Performance Polymer offers high output rates, thin or thick film production with excellent bubble stability, and good gauge uniformity.

INSPIRE™ 114 Performance Polymer is a propylene-based resin that is also intended for use in sheet extrusion, thermoforming, and blow molding.

This product line was spun off from Dow Chemical to Braskem
