A new polypropylene technology: Thermylene® P8 specialty compounded polypropylene resin has been launched by Asahi Kasei Plastics North America Inc. This is a material innovation that gives customers superior creep resistance at room temperature and comparable creep resistance at elevated temperatures when compared to long glass filled PP. Thermylene P8 materials build upon the strengths of Asahi Kasei's polypropylene portfolio opening the door to applications traditionally specified in long glass PP while providing the economical benefits of short glass polypropylene. It is a world-class polymer formulated for optimized interfacial adhesion between matrix and reinforcement and to balance impact and strength. Available in varying glass levels and endless colors, Thermylene P8 can be used in Automotive, Electronics, Furniture, Bath & Spa, Building and Construction
