Exxelor PO 1015
Maleic anhydride functionalized polypropylene
Product description
Exxelor PO 1015 is a maleic anhydride functionalized polypropylene copolymer, produced by reactive extrusion.
It has been primarily designed to add polarity to polypropylene matrices and in particular improve polypropylene
reactivity with amino-silane treated glass reinforcements.

Performance enhancements in glass-filled polypropylene include:
Processing
Exxelor PO 1015 can be added to polypropylene, to achieve optimum dispersion within the glass-reinforced
matrix and achieve the best performance. Compounding parameters that can lead to optimized performance
include extruder type, screw design, barrel temperature, screw speed, throughput, residence time and material
feeding sequence.
Our experienced technical service engineers and chemists are always on hand to help you in achieving the best
performance from your processing and compounding operations.
