GMW16826

Description / Abstract: Material Description.

This standard covers the properties of a nominal 1700 MPa flexural modulus polyolefin alloy, high flow, low density, pellet form, black colored injection molding compound. For the purpose, of this specification, polyolefin alloy is defined as an alloy of polypropylene plastic and ethylene/propylene (EP) or ethylene/propylene diene monomer (EPDM) rubber.

Symbols. The material abbreviation according to ISO 11469 is PP+EPDM-M12.

Applicability. Typical applications include the following: fully painted bumper fascias and rocker moldings.

Remarks. Regarding paintability, plastics used for painted applications are required to meet paint performance requirements for new plastic materials per GMW16172. Additionally, painted plastic parts are required to meet painted plastic parts performance requirements per GMW14797
