Round Rod in PP-H AlphaPlus 1000 mm gray

PP-H AlphaPlus is a nucleated polypropylene homopolymer. AlphaPlus means with an alpha nucleator, an additive that gives a more even crystal structure and better dimensional stability. The material is stiffer than standard PP-H and takes 20 degrees more heat.

The density is 0.91 g/cm³, the tensile modulus 1700 MPa and the yield strength 33 MPa. The elongation at yield is 8 percent and the notched Charpy impact strength 9 kJ/m². Shore D is 72. The temperature range is 0 to +120 °C in short term testing.

The building fire class is B2 and the material is approved for direct food contact. The surface resistivity is very high.

AlphaPlus suits structural parts where stiffness and dimensional stability under load matter more than maximum impact strength. The material is machined like ordinary PP-H.

Thanks to the more even crystal structure the sheets warp less during sawing and milling. Weld with hot air or a welding rod as for standard PP.

This round rod in PP-H AlphaPlus is gray and measures 1000 mm, which suits turned parts, rollers, slide rings and shaft studs. With the 1000 mm dimension and the gray surface you get a round rod in PP-H AlphaPlus that is particularly well suited to longer machining jobs where turning or milling is required. Contact us if you want this round rod in PP-H AlphaPlus with the 1000 mm dimension and the gray surface adapted to your needs.
