MTI ThermoStran® Polypropylene PP-40G Long Glass Fiber Compound
Subcategory: Polypropylene; Thermoplastic; Polymer
Material Notes: ThermoStran® is custom designed long fiber thermoplastic compound (LFC) engineered to meet specific end use requirements. Continuous fibers are pultruded to yield pellets with fibers equivalent to the pellet length. Fiber / pellet length = 0.5 inches. Properties reported are dry as molded. Processing information: Mold Temperature: Higher mold temperatures are recommended for smoother surface appearance. Nozzle: Shortest length possible and 0.25 inch diameter or larger is recommended. Gates: Gates should be as large as possible and located to eliminate knit line and advantageously align fiber. Runners: Full round runners with 0.25 inch diameter and no sharp corners. Construction Material: Tool steels can be heat treated and polished to increase hardness and wear resistance. A-2 and D-2 steels can be hardened to Rockwell 60 C scale for longer life. Plating: Electroless nickel plating may offer additional wear protection.Information provided by MTI Thermoplastic Composites, Division of Montsinger Technologies, Inc.
