Effect of Polymerization Technology on Processing Stability of Polypropylene Impact Copolymers

conference paper

English

Processing stability of polypropylene impact-copolymers (ICPP) produced by Innovene, Spheripol and Unipol technologies were investigated during multiple extrusion using a twin-screw extruder at 220 degC . The materials were stabilized using the same type and level of phenol/phosphite stabilization. The observed differences in processing and long-term stabilities were related primarily to the reactivity of catalyst residues rather than to other factors, such as contents of ethylene, quantity of extractables, EPR phase composition, levels of ash or individual elements in it.
