High stiffness, clarified polypropylene compositions having improved properties for food packaging
Abstract:
Described herein are high stiffness, snappable food contact material compositions containing at least one polypropylene, a hydrocarbon resin, and optionally one or more other additives. The disclosed compositions exhibit a combination of mechanical, chemical, and/or optical properties that enable wider use of such polypropylene-based compositions in food packaging applications, including in Form-Fill-Seal food packaging where high stiffness, snappability, thin walls, and good clarity are important factors. Also described herein are articles comprising the disclosed compositions and methods of manufacturing such articles.
