Formosa Plastics Formolene 5142K Extrusion - Sheet - Thermoforming Polypropylene
Subcategory: Polypropylene; Thermoplastic
Material Notes: Homopolymer Applications: Extrusion, Sheet and Thermoforming Applications Formolene 5142K is a high viscosity homopolymer designed primarily for thermoformed cups and container applications. It contains a unique combination of stabilizers, nucleators and anti-stats that give it an excellent balance of stiffness and impact strength and high clarity. Formolene 5142K offers an advantage in processing over current polypropylenes used for thermoforming, which includes a broader forming window and fast set up time. Meets all requirements of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as specified in 21 CFR 177.1520, covering safe use of polyolefin 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.
