Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the difference between SABIC PP 500P and other PP grades for raffia tape?
A: SABIC 500P is a specific homopolymer extrusion grade with optimized MFI (3.5) and narrow molecular weight distribution, providing excellent dimensional stability and processability for high-speed raffia tape lines. It offers a balance of stiffness and impact resistance suitable for weaving applications.
Q2: Can this material be used for colored tapes?
A: Yes, SABIC PP 500P accepts masterbatch pigments well. We recommend conducting trials to determine optimal color loading. Natural granules are supplied as standard; colored compounds can be arranged upon request (minimum order quantity applies).
Q3: Is SABIC PP 500P suitable for food contact packaging?
A: The virgin grade complies with general food contact regulations such as FDA and EU 10/2011 when processed under appropriate conditions. Please request our regulatory documentation for your specific application.
Q4: What is the typical shelf life of this product?
A: When stored in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight, SABIC PP 500P can be used within 2 years from manufacturing date. We provide fresh production lots with a minimum of 12 months remaining shelf life.
Q5: Do you offer sample quantities for testing?
A: Yes, we provide free samples (1–5 kg) for qualification. Shipping costs may apply. Please contact our sales team to arrange a sample with the relevant technical datasheet.
Q6: How do you ensure consistent quality across batches?
A: We source directly from SABIC's authorized distribution network and maintain strict inventory management. Each shipment is accompanied by a certificate of analysis (COA). We also conduct random in-house tests for MFI and density.
Q7: What packaging options are available for export?
A: Standard packaging is 25 kg polywoven bags. For container shipments, we also offer 500 kg or 1000 kg big bags with inner liner. Custom labeling and palletizing are available upon request.
