Description
Material Notes:
Xmod GB305HP is reinforced with 35% chemically coupled glass fibers and based on a specific Polymer matrix material that is bringing excellent mechanical properties (biaxial impact behavior) as well as a very good stiffness at higher temperatures. The grade is equipped with an long-term high heat stabilization package.Xmod GB305HP has been developed especially for the automotive market for applications that require high mechanical strengths at high service temperatures e.g. for parts under the bonnet: air intake manifold, parts for cooling system, and technical components exposed to high heat over longer time.Information provided by the Manufacturer.
