Performance Benefits of PP Borouge RG568MO

Outstanding Clarity and High Gloss. PP RG568MO features a random copolymer molecular structure combined with advanced nucleation technology, delivering excellent transparency and surface brightness. Finished parts exhibit a clear, clean appearance with high visual appeal, making the grade well suited for applications where optical clarity is a key requirement.
High-Speed Processability. With its high melt flow characteristics, Borouge RG568MO material allows smooth cavity filling even in thin-wall designs and complex mould geometries. The incorporation of BNT (Borealis Nucleation Technology) accelerates crystallization, enabling faster cooling, reduced cycle times, and improved production efficiency in high-output injection moulding operations.
Balanced Mechanical Performance. This material offers a well-balanced combination of stiffness and toughness, providing sufficient structural rigidity while maintaining resistance to cracking in thin-wall and lightweight designs. Its excellent resistance to stress whitening ensures that parts retain a clean and attractive appearance even after repeated bending, squeezing, or handling.
Superior Surface Finish and Colourability. The resin produces smooth, high-gloss moulded surfaces with consistent quality. It also demonstrates good compatibility with colour masterbatches, supporting stable pigmentation and uniform colour development across finished products.
Food-Contact Suitability. RG568MO is suitable for food-contact applications, including food packaging and storage products. It meets relevant hygiene and chemical safety requirements, making it a reliable choice for applications where consumer safety and regulatory compliance are essential.

Main Applications
