Formolene® 3435E

Random Copolymer for Clear Storage Containers and Food and Beverage
Containers

Formolene® 3435E is a high melt flow random copolymer with fast cycle time and easy mold release. It is designed for
injection molding including thin wall applications requiring a higher level of impact resistance. Its clarity and low
yellow index makes it an excellent choice for ‘see-through’ house wares and rigid packaging.

Formolene® 3435E meets the requirements of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as specified in 21 CFR
177.1520, covering safe use of polyolefin articles and components of articles intended for direct food contact. For
additional information on approved conditions of use for food contact applications, please refer to the “Products”
section on our website (http://www.fpcusa.com/ourproducts.html).
