| Product Description | ||||
|
Alathon H4262 is a high-flow resin that exhibits very good cold temperature impact performance, optimum processing and thermal stability, with good color and organoleptic properties. Typical customer applications include rigid food packaging such as four, five and six-quart ice cream containers produced at high speeds in fast-cycling, multi-cavity stack molds.
