Washington Penn High Modulus Polypropylene Homopolymer 40% Glass Filled

Mica-filled polypropylene compounds provide the best strength and modulus of any of the particulate fillers which results in an outstanding balance of properties. Mold shrinkage is similar to ABS and parts run in ABS tooling may be useable in size and fit. Compounds may also be supplied with very high rigidity and heat deflection temperatures.
