Bioplastics’ producer FKuR Kunststoff GmbH presented a wide range of biodegradable, biobased and natural fiber reinforced compounds at the Fakuma 2011 show. Currently, these compounds offer a wide range of possibilities.
FKuR has now presented its further developments of the cellulose acetate based Biograde® products. The highlight of this development is Biograde® V 2091 which is a completely transparent injection moldable grade that has been developed for thin wall parts with long flow paths. Along with its high transparency, Biograde® V 2091 stands out due to its smooth and shiny surface. Moreover, especially for thin walled parts, it out performs standard polystyrene (PS) as to flexibility and heat distortion temperature.
With these extended properties, the product line Biograde® sets new standards and allows for the realization of diverse applications within the electronic and household appliances sector.
