Mineral Filled Casting Resins PF is a subcategory of Phenol-formaldehyde Plastic. The additative is added during the manufacturing process. Its tensile strength ranges from 4000 to 9000 MPa at break. Its flexural strength ranges from 9000 to 12000 MPa. Its compressive strength ranges from 29000 to 34000 MPa. Its Izod Impact strength ranges from 0.35 to 0.5 J/cm. Its hardness ranges from 85 to 120 Rockwell M. Its specific gravity ranges from 1.68 to 1.7.

Phenol-formaldehyde Plastic, also known as PF, is a thermoset polycondensate. The most common trade name is Bakelite. A naturally brittle material in pure form, it is able to be strengthened with fillers such as wood pulp and cellulose. PF is the first volume-produced synthesized polymer resin. It was widely used in early consumer electronic products such as telephones and radios.
