GLASS FIBER REINFORCED POLYPROPYLENE COMPOUND
Description
PolyAzin-G 540G is a polypropylene reinforced compound contains 40% glass fiber for injection molding. The fibers are chemically coupled to the polypropylene matrix. This combination significantly improves the mechanical properties of the polypropylene, such as strength, stiffness and dimensional stability, while keeping the material lightweight. It shows good chemical resistance, heat-resistant, and has lower thermal expansion compared to pure polypropylene. This material is widely used in the automotive industry, construction and household appliances, where a combination of lightness and high performance is required. This grade has a natural color and also available in customer requested color. Additionally, we make tailor made compounds as per desired technical properties.
