Material Notes:

IB58 is a high-density polyethylene, narrow molecular weight butene-1 copolymer produced by the solution process for injection molding applications. It offers good processability combined with good stiffness, impact strength, and stress crack resistance. It contains antioxidant additives. Its applications include: thin-wall articles, housewares, toys, food containers, and general purpose containers for indoor applications. IB58 has been developed for injection molding under conditions comparable to high-density polyethylene with a similar melt flow index. Recommended temperature profile: 160 to 230ºC.
