Product Description
QUATTOR® BI-56250 is a high-density polyethylene, butene copolymer, produced through Unipol® process and recommended for use in injection molding.
It exhibits an excellent moldability due to its high melt index, making possible the use of very fast cycles. Injected parts obtained using QUATTOR® BI-56250 exhibit excellent stiffness, outstanding impact resistance and lower warpage.

Applications: food containers, lids, housewares, toys and thin-walled injected parts.
