Typical Polypropylene Modification by Tuftec™ H1041
The softness and low-temperature impact strength of block polypropylene modified with Tuftec™ H1041 increases with the Tuftec™ content. Use the desired balance of rigidity and impact strength as the starting point for determining the appropriate component ratio.
