It is a polypropylene homopolymer with high melt rates and is suitable for textile applications because of high crystallization. It is a homopolymer with high fluidity suitable for production of Continuous Filaments (CFP, Bulk Continuous Filaments (BCF), thin microfibers with weaving speeds medium to high and excellent color stability features. Some other special applications of this product are as follows: continuous filaments with high strength uses as strips of backpacks, sport sacks, jumbo bags, and safety belts. Continuous filaments with medium strength are used for furniture and sport clothing. This grade is also appropriate for producing Bulk Continuous Filaments (BCF) for carpets.
Application:
- Textile
- Nonwoven cloths for children clothing
- Health, medical, sanitary
- Sport sacks and jumbo bags
- Safety belts
