Clarity in PP leads to new developments

Generally amorphous polymers like Polystyrene (PS), Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) and Polycarbonate (PC) have better clarity. PET is another polymer that provides excellent clarity despite its crystalline nature. Clear plastic products have better aesthetics and therefore command a premium when used in consumer products. PP is a widely used polymer on account of its lower cost and offers greater opportunity if it gets good clarity. Among the grades of PP, random or terpolymer offer the best clarity. However, it requires further improvement to match the clarity of PET.
