′′Jampilen RPX-345S′′ is a polypropylene random copolymer with high fluidity and outstanding transparency and optical properties. ′′Jampilen RPX-345S′′ is the material of choice for applications where transparency and aesthetics are primary requirements. This grade is designed for injection molding and injection stretch blow molding (ISBM) applications. Thanks to its high fluidity, one can experience reduced cycle times and energy savings compared to conventional grades. ′′Jampilen RPX-345S′′ is suitable for the packaging of non- oxygen sensitive products; hence, it counts as an effective alternative for PVC and PET in ISBM.
