| Among the numerous possibilities of material selection in injection molding, blow molding or thermoforming, polypropylene provides a unique balance of benefits such as: low cost, easy processing, high stiffness and low density compared to other polymers or glass. As polypropylene is a semi-crystalline polymer, it is naturally translucent or opaque. The introduction of additives – known as Clarifiers - can make PP highly transparent. The material is then referred to as Clarified PP. Clarified PP appears today as an outstanding alternative to other transparent polymers (generally amorphous) or glass.
AddKan Clarifying Masterbatch offers well dispersed clarifying agent in a Masterbatch form for easy processability . Addition levels vary from 1 to 5% depending on transparency desired.
