Technical Data Sheet

Adflex X 500 F
Catalloy

Product Description
Adflex X 500 F is a thermoplastic polyolefin which is typically used in co-extruded cast film and injection moulding
applications. Adflex X 500 F features a high softness, a low modulus, high gloss and excellent clarity. It has been
selected by customers for use in a central layer of tough transparent co-extruded cast-film structures. It can be
blended with other transparent polyolefinic resins to improve the low temperature impact resistance maintaining
the transparency of the film. Adflex X 500 F can be processed on conventional PP cast film lines. It is also suited
for injection moulding applications where high transparency and good gloss combined with good flexibility is
required like e.g. housewares and toys. It does not contain any slip nor anti-blocking agents.
