NatureWorks’ Ingeo biopolymer is a low-carbon-footprint polymer made from renewable plant material, not oil. Plastics and packaging applications for Ingeo include food-service ware, rigid packaging, films, durables and fibres.
The company has introduced high-performance Ingeo injection-moulding resin grades. Grades 2500HP, 3100HP and 3260HP are designed for use in medium- and high-flow nucleated formulations.
They are claimed to provide a good balance of mechanical and thermal properties while delivering up to 75% cycle-time savings based on current Ingeo grades. Heat distortion temperatures (at 66 psig) are in the range of 15°C higher than previous-generation solutions.
