Thermylene®
P6 & P7 Chemically Coupled Glass
and Glass Mineral Polypropylene
Asahi Kasei Plastics North America, Inc.'s Thermylene
Chemically Coupled Glass Fiber Reinforced Polypropylenes
encompass a family of thermoplastic products that employ
chemically grafted polymer additives. These enhance
the adhesion between the glass fiber reinforcement
and the polypropylene matrix. This “chemical coupling” of
the reinforcement to the polymer improves the transfer
of load induced stress from the polypropylene to the
glass fibers. The glass fibers thereby provide increased
load bearing ability to molded parts.
The enhanced adhesion between the glass fiber reinforcement
and the polypropylene matrix of Asahi Kasei Plastics North America, Inc.'s Thermylene
resins yields a comprehensive product line with:
- Superior Strength and Stiffness
- Improved Elevated Temperature Performance
- Higher Creep Resistance
- Enhanced Toughness
Cost-saving Solutions
These attributes combined with polypropylene's inherent
qualities of chemical resistance, light weight, and
process ability result in the lowest cost engineered
resin in the world.
