(pressreleasefinder) -- SABIC has developed a new, high-clarity SABIC PP Qrystal polypropylene. This random copolymer is a cost-effective, clear and stiff material for small and medium-sized bottles and provides a good option for extrusion blow molding companies.
SABIC PP Qrystal QR681K has good impact strength as well as the chemical resistance typical of polypropylene, making it typically suitable for packaging household chemicals, as well as typical shampoo and personal care applications. The new material is intended for containers up to 5L in volume. Although principally targeted at extrusion blow molding (EBM), tests by SABIC on injection blow molding (IBM) equipment have also yielded promising results. The SABIC PP Qrystal range now comprises five grades, which are produced both in Europe and the Middle East.
Sabic is ranked among the world"s largest petrochemicals manufacturers. It is the largest public company in Saudi Arabia. The comany manufactures chemicals and intermediates, industrial polymers, fertilizers and metals. It is currently the second largest global ethylene glycol producer. Among its products are propylene, paraxylene, styrene, polystyrene (PS), melamine, vinyl chloride monomer, polyvinyl cloride (PVC), polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polyester.
