SABIC® PP grades for healthcare applications are produced under controlled conditions
resulting in high product quality, consistency and a high level of purity.
SABIC® PP PCGR40L is a highly transparent polypropylene random copolymer with good antistatic
properties. This grade combines improved aesthetics of the finished articles with low temperature
processability and a very good organoleptic performance. Part aesthetics are not affected by the lower
temperatures, providing for a broader operating window, enabling short cycle times. SABIC® PP PCGR40L
results in excellent demoulding characteristics and has a good stiffness to impact ratio.
Typical applications: SABIC® PP PCGR40L is typically used for injection moulding of housings for empty
disposable 2-part syringes. A lubrication agent is added to reduce friction between moving parts. Other
applications demanding a high level of transparency and friction optimization are also possible.
Compliance to regulations: SABIC® PP PCGR40L complies with the food contact regulations and the
relevant monographs of the US Pharmacopoeia.Information provided by SABIC |
