Designed for complex components
Fibremod GE313IM is a polypropylene compound reinforced with 30% short glass fibers, developed for injection-molded components with complex geometries. Its high flowability helps fill intricate shapes, including industrial valves, internal valve parts and other pipe-system components, while maintaining mechanical performance.
Processing and performance
The material’s flow characteristics can reduce processing resistance, tool abrasion and associated maintenance needs. Its high crystallization temperature supports efficient injection molding and increased production output. The grade also provides stiffness, strength and dimensional stability at elevated service temperatures.
Additional applications
Heat- and detergent-stabilized, the material is supplied in natural color for applications requiring coloring. It meets global food-contact requirements and is also proposed for demanding injection-molded components in white goods and small appliances.
