Pro-fax 6301

LyondellBasell

Description

Pro-fax 6301 polypropylene homopolymer is available in spherical particle form.  This resin is typically used for mixing with pigments and other additives to make polymer concentrates or masterbatches. 

Pro-fax 6301 has very minimal stabilization, which allows wide design latitude for compounders.  Additional stabilization is required to protect the resin during melt processing and throughout its useful life.

Please note that any additives compounded into this resin will require a re-assessment of its FDA status.
