New Metallocene-based PP grade for TWIM Applications

Basell has launched a metallocene-based Metocene polypropylene (PP) copolymer, Clyrell EM248U, targeted for application towards processors of clear, thin-wall, injection-molded (TWIM) food applications in the United States. (The grade was introduced in Europe last year under the developmental name of Clyrell EM1791.) "Previously, processors have relied upon the need to add plastomers to conventional PP random copolymers in order to achieve the desired impact and clarity for TWIM applications," said Amit Gupta, customer project manager for Basell's Metocene global business unit.
