Abstract
The biaxially oriented hollow bodies are obtained by employing random propylene terpolymers which comprise ethylene (0.5 to 5% by weight) and 1-butene (2 to 12% by weight), which have a melting temperature of 120 to 150° C., which are degraded by a free radical generator and which have a degradation factor A of from 1.5 to 10, the said factor being represented by MFI /MFI , in which MFI is the melt flow index of the degraded terpolymer (of between 3 and 30 g/10 min) and MFI is the melt flow index of the initial terpolymer (of between 2 and 15 g/10 min). The process for the manufacture of the biaxially oriented hollow bodies is by injection stretch blowmoulding. The biaxially oriented hollow bodies are used for packaging.
