Clarifying NU500, NU500P
NU500
● DESCRIPTION
- TOWREX NU500 is a high-performance nucleating agent to improve clarity, mechanical properties for polyolefin and mainly polypropylene. When added into polypropylene, TOWREX NU500 acts as a large number of nuclei to generate smaller, highly dispersed crystals and provides remarkably increased clarity, heat resistance and rigidity
● COMPOSITION
▶ Chemical name : Hexitol, 1,3 : 2,4-bis-o[(4-methylphenyl)methylene]
● TYPICAL PROPERTIES
Appearance | White powder |
Moisture | Max 1.0 % |
Melting point | 245±1C(℃) |
Bulk density | Min 0.1 g/cc |
● APPLICATIONS
- TOWREX NU500 is added into polypropylene by conventional dry blending and pelletizing in the commercial manufacturing plant or by master batch pellet.
- The polypropylene containing TOWREX NU500 can be used in various applications
▶ Disposable syringe
▶ Transparent article
▶ High transparent PP sheet
▶ Heat resistance PP container
● CHARACTERISTICS
▶ Good effect with small dosage
▶ Appearance without blooming
▶ Mild odor
▶ Good dispersion
● THE BENEFITS OF TOWREX NU500
▶ Improvement of transparency and gloss
▶ Improvement of dimensional stability and heat distortion temperature
▶ Higher productivity due to shortening cycle time in molding process
● DOSAGE
▶ The level of 2,000 to 3,000ppm is recommended for homo polypropylene, random polypropylene.
● FDA APPROVAL
▶ TOWREX NU500 is approved as clarifying agent to use in food contact. ( FDA code 21, 178.3295 )
