Moplen EP490H is a fully recyclable heterophasic copolymer, specifically developed for foam applications.
Moplen EP490H exhibits:
Good dimensional stability
High stiffness
High impact properties at room and sub-zero temperatures
Outstanding creep and deforming resistance
Fully recyclable and usable
Good dimensional stability
High stiffness
High impact properties at room and sub-zero temperatures
Outstanding creep and deforming resistance
Fully recyclable and usable
Ideal for food and rigid packaging.
The superior foaming properties of Moplen EP490H help reduce the amount of plastic used in production, lowering carbon footprint and creating a lighter-weight final product.
Moplen EP490H replaces banned single-use plastics like EPS. Outstanding dimensional stability and durability make final products re-usable. Mono-material packaging design is possible, making it suitable for existing recycling streams and offering a fully recyclable and circular solution.
Superior foaming reduces density and creates a lightweight final product
Moplen EP490H can be produced from ISCC PLUS certified feedstock, significantly reducing carbon footprint vs. regular fossil-based materials like EPS and conventional PP.
Moplen EP490H is produced with a non-phthalate catalyst, is plasticiser and BPA-free, has no residual monomer, and has minimal SML content.
The ingredients and additives used are NON Animal Derived.
Good stiffness, high impact properties at room and sub-zero temperatures, good dimensional stability, water and chemical resistant.
A unique combination of foamability and thermoformability is now possible:
Moplen EP490H has a higher foamability than any conventional PP. It has a high melt strength and is suitable for the extrusion of foamed sheets, which are then thermoformed.
The surface appearance/aesthetics are vastly superior to conventional PP, providing a smooth surface, and increased impact resistance.
Moplen EP490H has fine and uniformed dispersed cell structure, which means it can achieve a much lower density.
