Features

Its high melt viscosity and strength provide ease of processing from either a flat or a circular die. Similarly, tubes, pipes, and tapes have been processed with excellent results.. Injection molding of high strength parts can be accomplished with molding cycles similar to those obtained with general-purpose grade resins, even though higher cylinder temperatures may sometimes be required.
