Ingeo™ 3100HP

About
Ingeo 3100HP is a medium viscosity product from NatureWorks LLC, designed for medium flow injection molding applications. It is designed to crystallize during processing, leading to higher heat deflection temperatures in opaque applications. The variety of products made with 3100HP is widely varied and growing. Applications include disposables such as cutlery, cups, plates, cosmetic packaging, and durables such as electronics housings and semi-durable building materials.&&
