Performance Properties of PP resins
Polypropylene (PP) has many properties and performances, including:
- Chemical resistance: PP is resistant to many chemicals, including acids, bases, and organic solvents. It's only corroded by concentrated sulfuric acid and concentrated nitric acid.
- Mechanical properties: PP is strong, tough, and has good impact resistance. It's also resistant to fatigue and heat.
- Electrical properties: PP has good high-frequency insulation performance and a high dielectric constant. It's also suitable for use as electrical accessories.
- Thermal properties: PP has a high melting temperature, making it suitable for use in high temperature applications. However, it can melt or deform at high temperatures.
- Moisture barrier properties: PP has excellent moisture barrier properties, making it suitable for use in packaging applications.
- Wear resistance: PP has good wear resistance.
- UV resistance: PP is very sensitive to ultraviolet light.
- Recyclability: PP is a highly recyclable material.
- Biocompatibility: PP is generally considered biocompatible.
- Odor: PP is generally odorless.
PP can be modified with additives for specific properties or applications
