HOLTEC EC/752/T

    DESCRIPTION

EC/752/T is a transparent, tin stabilised, high impact profile, or hollow section extrusion compound.

    APPLICATIONS

EC/752/T has been developed for the extrusion of thin-walled tubing and hollow profiles, such as packaging tubing for electronic components.  It is also suitable for sectional profiles. Unlike many tin stabilised transparent profile grades, EC/752/T has very good dynamic heat stability and easy processing characteristics.  It is superior to Holtec  EC/143/T in this respect.

    PHYSICAL FORM/COLOUR

Pellets in Natural transparent.  The same base is available in transparent and opaque colours if required.

    TOXICITY

The free VCM content of EC/752/T is < 1ppm.  It may be regarded as having low toxicity and all the additives used in its manufacture are certified by their manufacturers as having BIBRA/BPF approval for use in foodstuffs      packaging.
