| Product Description | ||||
|
ALATHON H 5057 is a multi-purpose high-flow resin that exhibits enhanced low temperature impact performance, enhanced processability and thermal stability for fast cycling in multi-cavity stack molds, good color and organoleptic properties. Typical applications are rigid food containers such as cultured dairy product containers, margarine tubs, butter tubs, small frozen food containers and promotional drink cups.
