Borealis PP1121 High Impact Polypropylene
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polypropylene (PP); Polypropylene, Impact Modified; Molded/Extruded

Material Notes: PP1121 is a high impact polypropylene intended for buffer tubes for fiber-optic cable. This grade is characterized by combination of good stiffness, good creep resistance and very high impact strength even at low temperatures. This grade features high thermal stability, very low shrinkage and very good processability. As all polypropylenes, this grade shows excellent stress-cracking and chemical resistances.

Typical characteristics:

  • Good stiffness
  • Very good processability
  • Good impact strength
  • High melt stability
  • Good stress crack resistance
  • Very low post extrusion shrinkage
Applications: High-speed manufacture of dry and wet buffer tubes for loose tube fiber optical cables
