The most important characteristics of PP are as follows:
Chemical Resistance: Dilute bases and acids do not react with PP, making it an ideal container for such liquids.
Elasticity and toughness: PP is elastic within a certain deflection range and will undergo plastic deformation without cracking in the early stages of deformation, so it is generally considered a "tough" material. Toughness is an engineering term defined as the ability of a material to deform without cracking.
Fatigue Resistance: PP retains its shape after being subjected to extensive twisting and bending. This property is particularly valuable for making living hinges.
Insulation: PP material has high resistance and is an insulating material.
Transmittance: It can be made into transparent colors, but it is usually made into natural opaque colors with a certain color transmittance. If high transmittance is required, you should choose acrylic or PC.
PP is a thermoplastic with a melting point of approximately 130 degrees Celsius and becomes liquid after reaching the melting point. Like other thermoplastics, PP can be heated and cooled repeatedly without significant degradation. Therefore, PP can be recycled and easily recycled.
Some industry areas where polypropylene is mainly used:
1. Packaging industry: Polypropylene is widely used in food packaging, pharmaceutical packaging, daily necessities packaging, etc.
2. Textile industry: Polypropylene fiber is used to manufacture various textiles, such as carpets, ropes, industrial filter materials, etc.
3. Medical devices: Because polypropylene has good biocompatibility, it is widely used in the field of medical devices, including medical syringes, test tubes, medical packaging, etc.
4. Automobile industry: Polypropylene is widely used in automobile interiors, body parts, engine parts, etc.
5. Construction and building materials: Polypropylene is used in the construction field to make pipes, insulation materials, flooring materials, etc.
6. Electronics and electrical appliances: Polypropylene is used in the field of electronics and electrical appliances to manufacture cable sheaths, sockets, switches and other components, and its insulation properties are very important.
7. Household items: Polypropylene also has many applications in manufacturing household items, such as chairs, trash cans, storage boxes, etc.
8. Agricultural field: Polypropylene is used to manufacture agricultural supplies, such as agricultural film, water pipes, agricultural packaging, etc.
9. Toy manufacturing: Due to its low cost and good processability, polypropylene is also widely used in toy manufacturing.
