Advantages |
| Good tensile strength, flexural modulus and elongation at break with the best combination of volume resistance and dielectric strength when compared with other modified grades of DAP. |
Disadvantages |
| As with other glass filled DAP mouldings, can be anisotropic with a tendency to warp. |
