Haldia Petrochemicals Ltd

Haldia Halene M365 is a reactor-grade, nucleated heterophasic polypropylene impact copolymer (PPCP) developed by Haldia Petrochemicals Ltd. Engineered for high-flow performance (65 g/10 min MFI), M365 enables efficient thin-wall injection moulding with outstanding dimensional stability and low warpage. The nucleation technology accelerates crystallisation, reduces cycle times, and improves part precision, making it ideal for complex, high-volume manufacturing. Certified to IS 10951-3-MBV-F and compliant with IS 10910 for food, pharma, and drinking water contact, M365 is supplied as natural granules in robust 25 kg bags, with recommended storage in dry, UV-protected environments below 50°C.

Functional Features (Industry Authority)

Halene M365 delivers a unique blend of high-flow processability, nucleated stability, and balanced mechanical properties. The grade’s low warpage and rapid demoulding reduce defects and energy use, while its stiffness-impact balance ensures reliability in both rigid and semi-flexible parts. M365’s food-contact compliance and batch-to-batch consistency make it a trusted choice for converters, OEMs, and compounders across India. Halene M365 offers a density of 0.90 g/cm³ and a melt flow rate of 65 g/10 min, providing the flowability needed for thin-wall and complex part designs. Its tensile strength at yield is 24 MPa, with 5% elongation at yield, ensuring balanced ductility and toughness. The flexural modulus of 1200 MPa and notched Izod impact of 60 J/m at 23°C deliver a reliable stiffness-impact profile, while a heat deflection temperature of 90°C and Vicat softening point of 135°C support thermal stability for demanding environments. All values are typical and not to be used as specifications. Processing Recommendations: Melt temperature: 210–250°C; mould: 20–50°C; shrinkage: 1.2–1.8%. High flow reduces injection pressure, supporting efficient production of complex geometries. Compliance: Certified to IS 10910 and IS 16738:2018 for food/pharma/water contact, and aligns with FDA CFR 21 177.1520. Documentation includes TDS, SDS, COA, and regulatory letters.

Applications and Industry Use Cases

Appliances and White Goods Components

Halene M365 is the material of choice for appliance housings, AC louvers, washer covers, and internal components requiring warpage resistance and snap-fit integrity. Its high flow and nucleation enable precise, lightweight parts, while food-contact compliance allows use in kitchen appliances and white goods.

Thin-Wall Packaging and Houseware

M365’s flowability and low warpage make it ideal for thin-wall tubs, crates, bins, and storage containers. The grade supports high-cavitation tooling and fast cycle times, enabling scalable production for consumer and industrial packaging.

Automotive and Compounding Base

In the automotive sector, M365 is used for non-structural trims, ducts, and interior panels where stiffness and dimensional accuracy are essential. As a compounding base, it provides superior processability for masterbatch and mineral-filled PPCP grades.

Performance Advantages of Halene M365

Compared to non-nucleated or lower-MFI PPCP grades, Halene M365 delivers 10–20% faster cycles, better dimensional accuracy, and reduced demoulding defects. Its reactor-grade nucleation distinguishes it from competitors like Reliance Repol B650MN, IOCL Propel 3650MN, and HMEL Polysure CM65NR by offering a superior balance of flow, warpage resistance, and gloss—critical for India’s appliance, packaging, and automotive OEMs.

Packaging, Storage, and Logistics

Halene M365 is packaged in strong 25 kg bags for safe handling and storage. Bags should be stored dry, below 50°C, and protected from direct sunlight to maintain material quality. JITSY.in ensures pan-India supply from Delhi/NCR warehouses, providing reliable stock, batch traceability, and export-ready documentation for global buyers.
