You can look at the properties of the various preforms available in the databases.
Autodesk Simulation Moldflow databases include a default preform material for you to use in your simulation. If you use preforms regularly, it is advisable for you to create your own preform database with all your preform materials. The closer the data used in a simulation is to real-life, the more accurate your results will be.
