Reinventing The Random Copolymer
With Moplen RP2380!
A New High-performance Injection Molding Resin From Industry innovator
LyondellBasell
Moplen RP 2380 is not your ordinary random copolymer. Why?
Because it offers an extraordinary combination of benefits that
surpass standard grades on the market. Benefits demanded by
today’s injection molding applications – offered by one random
copolymer.
Appealing aesthetic design is a pre-requisite for many
consumer applications. From housewares and food containers
to reusable containers and safety gear – goods must be
presented attractively to allow identification of contents and
facilitate use. To meet these requirements, an optimum
balance of transparency and exceptional flowability are a must.
That’s why LyondellBasell developed Moplen RP 2380 – a new The Amazing Benefits
benchmark in random copolymer performance. of Moplen RP 2380
• Very good flowability
Additive packages used with Moplen RP 2380 offer additional • Optimum aesthetics
advantages. Nucleating additives are particularly important • Good organoleptic performance*
when an increase in stiffness and improved overall optical • Nucleating additives
properties are required. • Internal antistats
* It is the responsibility of the finished food contact
material or article to verify that the finished material
or article, manufactured according to good
Potential Customer manufacturing practices, does not modify the
Applications organoleptic properties of the food.
• Food containers
Initial customer trials have shown that
• Transparent packaging compared with standard PP grades, Moplen RP
• Reusable containers 2380 allows a reduction in injection molding
• Housewares temperatures of up to 40°C. This results in lower
• Safety glasses energy consumption and reduced cooling time
requirements, offering improved productivity
with potential cycle time reductions.
In addition, containers produced with Moplen
RP 2380 showed lower haze and better
transparency in all the trials conducted, offering
improved overall aesthetics. Customers also
report good taste and odor performance
essential for food packaging.
