Product Description
Material code according to ISO 1043-1: PP

Heat stabilized polypropylene reinforced with 40 weight percent long
glass fibers with enhanced impact properties.. The fibers are chemically coupled to the polypropylene
matrix. The pellets are cylindrical and normally as well as the
embedded fibers 10 mm long.

Parts molded of CELSTRAN have outstanding mechanical properties such
as high strength and stiffness combined with high heat deflection.
The notched impact strength is increased at elevated and low
temperatures due to the fiber skeleton built in the parts. The long
fiber reinforcement reduces creep significantly.

The very isotropic shrinkage in the molded parts minimizes the
warpage.

Complex parts can be manufactured with high reproducibility by
injection molding.

Application field: Functionial/structural parts for automotive
