Food-contact PP that cycles fast

4720WZ is a nucleated impact copolymer with FDA-grade food-contact compliance and a 25 MFR: it fills thin walls quickly and demolds early for short cycles, while antistatic behavior keeps parts clean. Every unit ships with molding guidance so parts stay consistent.

About this product

PP-FDA 4720WZ is a nucleated impact-copolymer polypropylene with FDA-grade, food-contact compliance and a high 25 MFR — engineered for fast-cycle molding of durable consumer goods, with built-in antistatic behavior. Based on the TotalEnergies 4720WZ grade.

Why engineers choose PP-FDA 4720WZ

Food-contact polypropylene that runs fast and stays clean.

FDA-grade

Formulated for food-contact compliance, so it clears review for kitchen storage, housewares, and consumer parts.

Fast cycling

Nucleation speeds crystallization for early demolding, cutting cycle time on high-volume parts.

High impact & stiffness

1,447 MPa flexural modulus with impact-copolymer toughness for durable, load-bearing consumer goods.

Antistatic finish

Built-in antistatic behavior reduces dust attraction, keeping finished consumer parts cleaner.

How we supply it

Genuine resin, ready to mold, with the parameters your process engineer needs.

Step 01
Sourced & lot-traced

Genuine TotalEnergies 4720WZ food-grade PP, packed in sealed 2 lb units and shipped from US stock. Minimum order 5 units.

Step 02
Mold ready

Polypropylene absorbs little moisture, so drying is not typically required. Store sealed in a dry place before use.

Step 03
Molding parameters included

Melt 200–260°C (392–500°F), mold 40–80°C (104–176°F). The high 25 MFR fills thin walls easily.

Common questions

Don't see yours? Email [email protected] — NDA standard, typical reply within 4 hours.

Is PP-FDA 4720WZ safe for food contact?
Yes — PP-FDA 4720WZ is an FDA-grade polypropylene formulated for food-contact applications, which is why it is used for kitchen storage and housewares. For a specific regulatory filing, we can supply the compliance documentation; contact a materials engineer to confirm it meets your exact requirement.
Do I need to dry PP-FDA 4720WZ before molding?
Not usually. Polypropylene absorbs very little moisture, so PP-FDA 4720WZ does not typically require drying. Store the sealed units in a cool, dry place and keep them closed until use. A short dry only helps if pellets have been exposed to humidity for a long time.
What melt and mold temperatures does PP-FDA 4720WZ need?
PP-FDA 4720WZ molds at a melt temperature of 200–260°C (392–500°F) with a mold temperature of 40–80°C (104–176°F). Its high 25 MFR fills thin walls quickly. These are starting points — a materials engineer can help tune them for your part and machine.
What is PP-FDA 4720WZ used for?
PP-FDA 4720WZ suits food-contact housewares and kitchen storage, containers and storage boxes, garden and outdoor furniture, thin-wall packaging, and lawn and garden equipment. Its food-grade compliance plus fast cycling make it a practical choice for durable consumer goods.
How is it different from the non-FDA PP 4820WZ?
Both are nucleated impact copolymers from the same family. PP-FDA 4720WZ is formulated for food-contact compliance and has a 25 MFR, while PP 4820WZ is a higher 35 MFR grade for non-food parts. Choose 4720WZ when your part touches food; choose 4820WZ for the fastest cycles on general parts.
How is PP-FDA 4720WZ packaged and what is the minimum order?
PP-FDA 4720WZ ships in sealed 2 lb units, and the minimum order is 5 units (10 lbs total). Larger volumes and official purchase orders are welcome — contact us for volume pricing. Material ships from US stock, typically within 1–2 business days.
Will PP-FDA 4720WZ run on the APSX-PIM desktop molder?
Yes. PP-FDA 4720WZ is formulated for desktop and standard injection molding, including the APSX-PIM. Its high flow makes it easy to fill on smaller machines. Our team can confirm shot size and parameters for your specific mold.
