VC - 8060 Simulate PP

Versatility, Dimensional Stability, Cost-effective Solution

8060 Simulate PP is a material used in vacuum casting processes to replicate the properties of polypropylene (PP). It is designed to closely mimic the characteristics of PP, such as its flexibility, impact resistance, and chemical resistance. This makes it an ideal choice for creating functional prototypes and low-volume production parts that require the properties of PP.

The material is commonly used in various industries, including automotive, consumer goods, medical, and industrial applications. It allows for the production of prototypes and components that accurately simulate the behavior and performance of PP parts, enabling testing, validation, and functional evaluation before mass production

Applications
