SINPOLENE High/Medium-Gloss Polypropylene Compound


SINPOLENE MFP is a series of polypropylene designed for injection molding of domestic appliances' housings where a high-gloss surface is necessary for high heat applications. All grades are mineral filled for good rigidity and dimensional stability while remaining food contact safe. The MFP grades are formulated for high heat applications.
