CAS NO. 1459-93-4
UNIPLEX 270 is a monomer for modifying the clarity and melting point of polyethylene
terephthalate resins.

molded bottles and other applications as indicated by processing temperatures. The
incorporation of UNIPLEX 270 into the polymer greatly increases the clarity of the
finished products.
