Polypropylene with 30% chemically-coupled glass reinforcement possesses a 180% improvement in tensile strength over the non-reinforced polypropylene and has a 50% improvement over conventional glass-reinforced grades. Talc-filled polypropylenes further have improved rigidity, hardness, and heat resistance compared to the base resin. Glass fiber-reinforced polypropylene has also improved dimensional stability, resistance to warpage, rigidity and strength.
MARKET DYNAMICS
The glass-filled polypropylene market has witnessed significant growth owing to factors such as wider application in automotive, appliances, furniture, and others.
