Organoblend rPB50MS Coco Blend

Mottainai 5.0

injection molding

general description

nature2need Organoblend rPB50MS grades are advanced compounds that deliver enhanced strength and stiffness values. The material is UV stabilized.

Standard grades are built on more than 40 w.-% mechanically extracted (no chemicals used) biomass, mainly coco peat, coco coir and some rice husk. Coco residues and other naturally sourced biomass replace more than 50 w.-% of PP. Plants absorb atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) as they grow. Using biomass like coco residues and rice husk in a direct form to create products turn these into an effective CO2 storage resulting into a more permanent removal of CO2 from the atmosphere.

Part wall-thickness shall be greater than 2.5 mm. Injection molds shall be tailored to high-filled material grades.

The grades are delivered in dark natural, speckled color.

• durable bio-compounds
• injection molding grade
• environmentally sustainable; > 50% bio-based
• host-matrix is 100% recylced PP
• blended with > 40 w.-% 2nd generation biomass coco peat, coco coir and rice husk
• high strength and stiffness properties
• improved flow and stable processing
• naturally heat-stable up to 125 °C
• durable, can be recycled (symbol 7)
• BPI- & melamine free
• UV protected
• available as flame retardancy improved grade
• injection molds need to be suitable for high-filled materials
