| Product Description | ||||
|
ALATHON H4250 is a high-flow "freezer" grade resin that exhibits enhanced cold temperature impact performance, enhanced processing and thermal stability, with good color and organoleptic properties. Typical applications are rigid food containers such as four, five and six-quart ice cream containers that are produced at high speeds in fast cycling multi-cavity stack molds.
