Formosa Plastics Formolene® 3355O Random Copolymer Polypropylene
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polypropylene (PP); Polypropylene Copolymer
Material Notes:	Random Copolymer for Clear Storage Containers and Food and Beverage Containers Formolene® 3355O is a high melt flow random copolymer with fast cycle time and easy mold release. It is designed for injection molding including thin wall applications requiring exceptionally good mold and part release. The use of an advanced clarifier with its aesthetic values, yellowness index and low haze, makes it an excellent choice for ‘see-through’ house wares and rigid packaging. Formolene® 3355O meets the requirements of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as specified in 21 CFR 177.1520, covering safe use of polyolefin articles and components of articles intended for direct food contact Specimens were injection molded according to the conditions specified in ASTM D4101 Information provided by Formosa Plastics Corporation, USA
