X 30 Sis a homopolymer particularly suited for the extrusion of cast and water quenched blown film. X 30 S is formulated with a general purpose stabilisation package and does not contain any slip or antiblocking agents. X 30 S exhibits excellent pcocessability and outstanding optical properties. This makes X 30 S particularly suitable for film for packaging food-stuffs such as pasta, snacks, biscuits, bakery products and confectionery. Other applications include film for packaging for flowers, books, stationery, blankets, shirts, knitwear and hosiery. X 30 S is also very appropriate for the extrusion of small pipes and drinking straws. X 30 S can be used for lamination with polyester, polyamide and aluminium for packaging of snacks, crisps, sweets, coffee , meat products and pre-cooked foods. In these applications, X 30 S gives an excellent high gloss finish in laminates and exhibits good printability after Corona treatment. X 30 S can also be coextruded with and VAL TEC heterophasic copolymer grades to produce high gloss finishes on blow moulded pigmented bottles and coextruded sheet
