It is a random polypropylene copolymer with high impact strengths even in low temperatures. Main applications of PNR230 products: cold and hot water pipes of buildings and their joints. As regards application, random polypropylene copolymer has impact strengths higher than those of polypropylene homopolymer and it has lower amounts of block copolymer as compared with polypropylene. Random polypropylene copolymer enjoys relatively good transparency, which transparency increases by adding nucleus removing material.
Application:
- Sanitary applications
- Transparent food containers
