Description

GNPGraystar’s ATH has a unique particle size distribution that provides the best possible combination of viscosity, flame, electrical, and molding properties that can be derived from an ATH filler. A closely controlled top size with a large super fine faction yields rapid dispersion in resin. Excellent mold flow and wet-out characteristics result in superior surface profile, minimal porosity, even pigmentation, and excellent filler and reinforcement distribution throughout the molded part.

This material data has been provided by GNPGraystar Specialty Materials.

"Typical" values were obtained via a literature search. "Predicted" values were imputed via artificial intelligence technology. While we have placed significant efforts in ensuring data accuracy, "typical" and "predicted" data should be considered indicative and verified by appropriate material testing. Please do contact us if additional information on the the predicted data method is required.
All metrics apply to room temperature unless otherwise stated. SI units used unless otherwise stated.
Equivalent standards are similar to one or more standards provided by the supplier. Some equivalent standards may be stricter whereas others may be outside the bounds of the original standard.
