Polifil® GFPPCC-20
- Chemical Family
- PolyolefinsPolypropylenes (PP)
Polifil® GFPPCC-20 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. Polifil® GFPPCC products are UL94 HB rated. These compounds are used in chemical resistance applications, appliances, electrical components, automotive, irrigation and utility products. Standard processing techniques are applicable. Use this information as a guide to aid you in selecting the proper resin for your application. TPG will custom compound and fine-tune our formulations for your application.
