Details
Borstar® RA140E is a BNT Nucleated high molecular weight, low melt flow rate polypropylene random copolymer (PP-R) natural colored.
Borstar® RA140E together with the appropriate additive package is recommended for the production of PP-R pipes and fittings used in: Heating, Plumbing, Domestic water, Relining, and Industrial applications
SPECIAL FEATURES
Borstar® RA140E is a natural grade used for production of pipes and fittings. The material is in pellet form
and includes selected additive package which ensure:
| Enhanced process ability |
High temperature resistance |
| Economical pipe production |
Low incidence on taste and odour |
| Excellent product consistency |
Good impact strength |
The pipe systems will show high durability, no corrosion, good weldability, homogeneous joints, low tendency to
incrustations and fast and easy installation.
PROCESSING CONDITIONS
The actual conditions will depend on the type of the equipment used and the diameter and wall thickness of the pipes produced.
