Fibremod™ GB402HP is a 40 % long glass fiber reinforced polypropylene grade intended for injection molding and extrusion. The long glass fibers, chemically coupled to the polypropylene matrix, are providing outstanding mechanical properties such as high strength, high stiffness and excellent impact behavior. Due to its excellent combination of properties this material can substitute in many applications other engineering plastics or metal alloys. A significant value of this material is the fact that it does not change its mechanical properties at humid conditions or water contact. It also contains UV-stabilizer. The product is available in standard black 8229. Applications: - Front end carriers
- Dashboard carriers
- Door module carriers
- Structural parts
- Technical components exposed to high heat and loads
Special Features: - Excellent mechanical properties even at high temperatures
- UV stabilized
Values determined on standard injection molded specimens conditioned at 23°C and 50% relative humidity after at least 96 hours storage time. To avoid residual humidity from transport or storage, the material should be pre-dried approximately 2h at 80°C.Information provided by Borealis AG |
