Code: 10147. We produce a biocompound consisting of a granulated polypropylene support with cork fiber added.
The PP granule with cork is 100% recyclable. because, if collected separately, they can be used to produce the same products.
In the PP granule with cork fibre, the molding temperatures can vary from 160°C to 190°C. Higher temperatures tend to cause deterioration of the fiber contained in the material.
The PP granule with cork fiber 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.
