Topas® 5013F-04
- Chemical Family
- Polyolefins
Polyplastics Group Topas® 5013F-04 is a high temperature film extrusion grade for blends. It is a high clarity amorphous resin with high flow, high stiffness, moisture barrier, chemical resistance, thermoformability and purity for food and healthcare applications. It is used in monolayer cast blends, and in coextruded blends in both cast and blown processes, for a wide variety of film and sheet products requiring excellent optics in applications such as heat resistant blister, hot fill, and easy tear packaging. If performance at elevated temperatures is not required, we also offer lower glass transition temperature (Tg) grades of TOPAS.
