LONG GLASS FIBER SURFACE
AESTHETICS
Good surface cosmetics with glass fiber
reinforced nylons are difficult to obtain
without high mold temperatures that
lengthen cycle times.
Complēt moisture
resistant nylons reinforced with long glass
fiber produce a smooth, fiber-free finish
without special processing to give molded
components a high-quality appearance.
