LyondellBasell Pro-fax 6301 Polypropylene Homopolymer, Flake Resin
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polypropylene (PP)

Material Notes: Primary Processing Method: Masterbatch/Concentrates

Key Features: general purpose polypropylene homopolymer flake resin, minimal stabilization, FDA acceptable

Applications: compounding, concentrates, masterbatches

Meets FDA requirements in 21 CFR 177.1520 for all food contact, including cooking applications. Additives require a reassessment.

Description: Pro-fax 6301 general purpose polypropylene homopolymer resin is available as natural flake. Flake from resin is well suited fro mixing with pigments and other additives to make polymer concentrates or masterbatches. This resin has very minimal stabilization, which allows wide design latitude for the compounded. Additional suitable stabilization is required to protect the resin during melt processing and throughout its useful life. Pro-fax 6301 flake resin meets FDA requirements in the Code of Federal Regulations in 21 CFR 177.1520 for all food contact, including cooking applications. Any additives compounded into this resin will require a reassessment of its FDA status. All ingredients meet the chemical registration requirements of TSCA and DSL.
