Product Description
FLEXATHENE TP 4311-HC is a Thermoplastic Polyolefin (TPO) formulated for extrusion and blow molding applications that require medium stiffness and excellent impact strength . TP 4311-HC is produced in a proprietary gas-phase process that yields a product with greater resistance to mechanical and thermal degradation and more uniform dispersion than melt-blended rubber compounds. This product is readily reprocessible with minimal changes to processing characteristics.
