Formosa Plastics Formolene® 4101O BCF Fiber Spinning Polypropylene
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polypropylene (PP); Polypropylene, Fiber Grade
Material Notes:	Homopolymer Applications: Multifilament and bulk continuous filament fiber. Formolene 4101O is a low viscosity, highly isotactic polypropylene homopolymer designed primarily for multifilament and bulk continuous filament fiber. It contains a unique combination of stabilizers which give it excellent gas fading resistance, mild UV resistance and appropriate process stability. Specimens were injection molded according to the conditions specified in ASTM D4101. Information provided by Formosa Plastics Corporation, USA.
