Code: 10146. We produce a biocompound consisting of a granulated polypropylene support with rice husk added.
The PP granule with rice husk is 100% recyclable. because, if collected separately, they can be used to produce the same products.
In the PP granule with rice husk the molding temperatures can vary from 160°C to 190°C. Higher temperatures tend to cause deterioration of the fiber contained in the material.
Rice husk PP granule is sensitive to air humidity and tends to absorb (or disperse) water vapor if exposed to humidity (or dry environments) for long periods.
Before use, drying at 60-70°C for 5-6 hours is recommended.
