Description
Material Notes:
Polifil® M series compounds are homopolymer polypropylene resins reinforced with mica. They combine an improved range of high-stiffness values with low mold shrinkage. These compounds are used in large area broad span applications where high modulus values are required and retained. Standard processing techniques are applicable.Information provided by The Plastics Group.
