Akoalit PB DKG 300

LyondellBasell

Description

Akoalit PB DKG 300 is a glass fibre reinforced high flow polyolefin homopolymer manufactured from butene-1 monomer. It can be used where outstanding creep, high stiffness, low thermal expansion and property retention at elevated temperature are key requirements.
The grade is typically used for fitting applications such as fitting bodies, support rings, etc. in combination with hot and cold potable water pipe installations. It provides improved surface aesthetic properties combined with excellent tensile and flexural creep performance.
Akoalit PB DKG 300 is available in natural colour in pellet form.
Akoalit PB DKG 300 may not be used in the manufacture of pipe applications intended for sale or shipment to North America, without prior written approval by Seller for each specific product and application.
