About this product

Chopped Strand for High Performance Thermoplastic Polymers

DS 8800-11P is a glass chopped strand specifically designed to reinforce high performance thermoplastic polymers, including PPS, PES, PSU, PPSU, PEI and PEEK. Furthermore, it shows interesting benefits in reinforcing PBT resins. 3B’s state-of-the-art manufacturing technology provides to DS 8800-11P very good strand integrity and bulk density leading to smooth compounders feeding, with low fuzz generation. persion within a large range of resin viscosities, enabling high glass fibre contents (> 55%). It is known for final reinforced parts’ heat stability and high mechanical properties combined with hydrolysis/glycolysis performances that are rated from high to even outstanding specifically in PPS. DS 8800 -11P also meets stringent requirements of food contact and drinkable water standards.

FEATURES - Innovative sizing technology - Versatile chopped strand product - High bulk density

BENEFITS - Compatibility with a wide range of high temperature resins - Excellent dry-as-molded properties in a large range of grades - Very good heat and hydro ageing properties - Designed for industrial applications including automotive, mechanical engineering, E&E, aerospace - Developed to reinforce engineered plastics in compliance with food and water contact regulations - Superior feeding behaviour - Particularly suitable for pneumatic conveying and megacompounders - Better productivity by reducing cleaning downtime

PACKAGING Standard packaging for DS 8800-11P Chopped Strand is 1000 kg polypropylene bag with bottom discharge (1 bag/pallet). Packaging in smaller quantities is available on request.

STORAGE It is recommended to store chopped strand products indoor at room temperature and at a relative humidity of 50% ± 15%. The product should remain in its original packaging, preferably closed. In order to prevent static electricity and humidity problems, the chopped strand material must be conditioned in the working place just prior to use. In case a packaging unit is only partly used, it should be immediately re-sealed. The pallet can be single stacked only.
