Heterophasic polypropylene resin having an MFR (2.16 kg, 230°C) of more than 40 g/10 min, determined according to ISO 1133 comprising a propylene homo- or copolymer matrix (A) and an ethylene-propylene rubber phase (B) dispersed within the matrix, wherein the heterophasic polypropylene resin has a fraction insoluble in p-xylene at 25°C (XCU) with an intrinsic viscosity of 1.2 dl/g or less, determined according to DIN EN ISO 1628-1 and -3, the fraction insoluble in p-xylene at 25°C (XCU) being composed of propylene monomer units in an amount of at least 95 wt.-%, and a fraction soluble in p-xylene at 25°C (XCS), having an intrinsic viscosity of 2.0 to 3.5 dl/g, determined according to DIN EN ISO 1628-1 and -3 and being composed of propylene monomer units in an amount of 50 wt. -% or more, and having a glass transition temperature Tg as measured by DSC according to ISO 6721-7 at a compression moulded sample consisting of the XCS fraction in the range of - 42 to - 30°C. |
