ALFATER® XL A40I 4GP0000

MOCOM Compounds ALFATER® XL A40I 4GP0000 is a thermoplastic vulcanisate (PP+EPDM) suitable for injection molding. It has a melt temperature of 190-220°C and a mold temperature of 10-60°C with injection speed in the middle to high range, back pressure (hydraulic) greater than 3 bar and a holding pressure of 50-70% of injection pressure. It has a natural color with bright inherent color and is low emission, with good colorability, weathering resistance, chemical resistance, ozone resistance, hot air resistance, and hydrolysis resistance. It is used in the automotive, building and construction, electrical and electronic, sport and leisure, and furniture markets, and can be used for injection molded parts such as seals, sealing lips, handles, racking/shelving, soft touch elements, impact protection/shock absorbers, protection caps, thin walled parts, profiles, cable ducts, and two-component components.
