About

PP (Polypropylene) is one of the most widely used materials in conventional manufacturing. Merged with glass fibers, it offers high toughness, excellent chemical (acid and alkali) resistance, structural tightness, and low moisture absorption. BASF PP-GF is an economic alternative to PA12 and has greater rigidity, dimensional stability, and abrasion resistance, making it suitable to manufacture robust jigs and fixtures, housings, and all parts subject to abrasion and wear.
