Product Description
PB DKG 401 Black is a glass fibre reinforced high flow homopolymer. It can be used where outstanding creep, ESCR (envirnmental stress cracking), low CLTE and property retention at elevated temperature are the key requirements.

This easy flowing reinforced semi chrystalline polymer designed for injection moulding can be injected at lower temperatures compared to its polyolefinic (PO) and engineering resin counterparts. It combines compared to its PO counterparts also improved surface aesthetic properties with improved tensile and flexural creep performance

Foodlaw compliance information about this product can be found in separate product documentation.
