ALFATER® XL A40I 4FC0010

CAS Number: 9004-74-4

MOCOM Compounds ALFATER® XL A40I 4FC0010 is a thermoplastic vulcanizate (PP+EPDM) that is designed for injection molding applications. This material has a natural color with a bright inherent color and is compliant with EN 71-3 regulations for food contact. It is suitable for use in the packaging, household goods, food processing industry, toy markets, and other applications. The material has good colorability, weathering resistance, chemical resistance, ozone resistance, hot air resistance, and hydrolysis resistance. It is easy to flow and can be used for injection molded parts such as seals, sealing lips, handles, soft-touch elements, protection caps, caps/closures, containers, kitchenware, and 2K components, making it a reliable choice for many applications.
