Specialty Compounds RTP Company

Plastics Group Polifil® GFPPCC-20 20% Glass Reinforced Polypropylene
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polypropylene (PP); Polypropylene with 20% Glass Fiber Filler

Material Notes: Polifil® GFPPCC series compounds are homopolymer polypropylenes reinforced with chemically coupled glass fibers. These compounds offer superior strength and stiffness, improved elevated temperature performance, better creep resistance, higher impact strength and higher resistance to high temperature water than conventional glass fiber reinforced polypropylenes.

Applications:

  • Chemical resistance
  • Appliances
  • Electrical components
  • Automotive
  • Irrigation
  • Utility products

Standard processing techniques are applicable.
