Polifil® C

Calcium Carbonate-Reinforced Polypropylene

Polifil® C series compounds are homopolymer polypropylene resins reinforced with fine particle size calcium carbonate. They combine high impact with stiffness, good colorability, resistance to environmental stress-cracking, good surface, and low mold shrinkage. Polifil® C products in the 20 to 40% range are UL94 HB rated. These compounds are used...
