Technical data sheet

Product : Polypropylene Compound with 15% Glass reinforcement

Grade : PP15GF
Colour : NATURAL
Comments : PPGF grades represent our family of specialty chemically coupled glass reinforced
polypropylenes (PP). When chemical coupling technology is applied to glass fiber reinforced
polypropylene, significant improvements are seen across a number of key physical attributes. The
enhanced properties of these polymers yield an extremely attractive cost/performance balance
when compared to traditional engineering thermoplastics.
