TATREN IM 55 80 is intended especially for high speed thin wall injection molding of products where good impact resistance is required. Typical end products are different household and garden articles like bowls, pails, storage boxes, trays, caps, closures, boxes for food packaging, toys etc. This grade can be used in mixtures with TATREN homopolymer grades. TATREN IM 55 80 is well suited for LFT technology to produce sound insulation car parts by compression molding. This grade can be used for compounding as well.
- Processing
TATREN IM 55 80 can be processed on standard injection molding machines. Recommended processing temperatures are 190 - 250°C.
- Recycling
Polypropylene resins are suitable for recycling using modern recycling methods. In-house production waste should be kept clean to facilitate direct recycling.

Regulatory & Compliance
- Certifications & Compliance
- Reach Statement
Polymers are exempt of REACH registration. However, their raw materials which mean monomers and relevant additives have been registered. SLOVNAFT, as. is committed to fully respect legislation and will only use REACH compliant raw materials. At this point in time PP TATREN does not contain any substances specifically identified as SVHC at levels greater than 0.1%.
Packaging & Availability
- Packaging Type
Storage & Handling
- Storage and Handling
Pellets are packed in 25 kg PE-LD bags and transported on stretch or shrink-wrapped pallets at eligible load of polymer 1375 kg. Heat treated pallets are available as well. We use adhesive between the bags in order to avoid their slipping. Pay attention to this fact during the removing of the bags from the pallets. The preferred method is to lift the bag at first without rotation. Transportation in a road silo or rail silo is also available.
Since polypropylene is a combustible substance, the fire safety rules applicable for combustible materials in warehouses and store rooms should be observed.
If polymer is stored in conditions of high humidity and fluctuating temperatures, then atmospheric moisture can condense inside the packing. If it happened, it is recommended the pellets to be dried before use. During the storage polypropylene should not be exposed to UV radiation and temperatures above 40°C. Producer does not take responsibility for any damages caused by adverse storage
