3.5 MELT FLOW CLARIFIED HOMOPOLYMER FOR THERMOFORMING APPLICATIONSPinnacle Polymers Polypropylene 1403N is made via UNIPOL™ PP technology, which utilizes gas-phase fluidized bed reactors with a high activity catalyst system to ensure uniform physical properties and lot-to-lot consistency.This product is intended for extruded sheet and thermoforming applications. The combination of flow characteristics and high stiffness provide light-weighting potential for containers. 1403N contains a clarifier providing excellent see-through clarity.The 1403N product provides: Superior color and processing stability Good melt strength and stretchability High clarity Low level of extractables Pinnacle's polypropylene, as marketed by Pinnacle Polymers Company, in natural, uncolored pellet form complies with appropriate requirements of CFR Title 21, Part 177, Subpart B, Section 177.1520 (c) 1.1a entitled "Olefin Polymers" of the Food Additives Amendment of 1958 to the United States Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act of 1938.
