Description:

EP440G is a nucleated heterophasic copolymer especially developed for extrusion applications. In comparison with standard polypropylene copolymers with the same fluidity, EP440G exhibits higher stiffness, superior impact properties at room and sub-zero temperatures, very high dimentional stability and excellent creep and deforming resistance. The main applications of EP440G are thermoforming, corrugated board and extrusion blow molding.

Typical Application:

Corrugated board, panels and profiles, crates, corrugated pipes for automotive and machin construction conduit pipes and fittings for electrical distribution and cable protection, blow molded bottles and containers.
