Yparex 4255

Yparex 4255 (formerly 0H18) polymer resin is a maleic anhydride functionalized PP, produced by reactive extrusion. It has been primarily designed to act as a coupling agent, or as a tie layer in multilayer polypropylene systems to ensure compatibility and improve adhesion of the different layers.

The grade is designed:

  • As a coupling agent between reinforcing materials such as natural and mineral fillers and polypropylene to improve mechanical properties.
  • To achieve compatibility and adhesion between polypropylene and polyamide.

Key features

  • Improved mechanical properties
  • Improved notched Izod and Charpy impact strength
  • Reduced water absorption
  • Adhesion as a tie layer in polypropylene-based concepts
