Dear list,

Time to re-visit this old issue again.
We have been experiencing difficulty with expansion in polypropylene orthoses lately. We were using American's plastic which I have been told is the Huntsman blend. Other plastic suppliers (Friddles and O&P Enterprises), have stated that their plastic Amoco 6015, is superior. We have switched and have noticed some improvement, although, some spreading problems still exist.

All suggestions are appreciated and I will post responses.

Thanks in advance.
