CirculenRenew C14 EP348U

LyondellBasell

Description

CirculenRenew C14 EP348U is part of the Circulen© product family of circular and sustainable solutions. CirculenRenew C14 polymer reduces the carbon footprint as it replaces fossil feedstock through using renewable raw materials made from bio-based waste and residue oils. The renewable content of CirculenRenew C14 is measured by an accredited third party laboratory and stated as a parameter on the Certificate of Analysis (CoA).

CirculenRenew C14 EP348U is a drop-in solution and therefore doesn’t require any adaptation of the existing processing equipment.

CirculenRenew C14 EP348U is a nucleated, antistatic formulated, very high flow impact copolymer suitable for thin-walled injection molding applications.
CirculenRenew C14 EP348U combines an excellent processability with a very good impact strength at low temperature.
CirculenRenew C14 EP348U is typically used by customers for margarine tubs, packaging for dairy products, ice cream containers, lids, caps, housewares, toy boxes, flower pots and laundry baskets
