PP Compounds
Material overview
Polypropylene is a lightweight polyolefin thermoplastic valued for its chemical resistance, low moisture absorption, fatigue performance and processing efficiency. Reinforced, filled, impact-modified and flame-retardant PP compounds can be tailored for automotive, appliance, electrical and general industrial applications.
Key properties
-
Low density with a useful balance of strength and toughness.
-
Good resistance to acids, alkalis and many organic chemicals.
-
Good heat resistance for many general-purpose applications.
-
Good electrical insulation and very low moisture absorption.
-
Excellent flex-fatigue performance for living hinges and repeatedly flexed components.
Typical applications
-
Automotive bumpers, instrument panels, door panels and seat components.
-
Household-appliance housings, kitchenware and household products.
-
Packaging and selected healthcare applications, subject to grade-specific regulatory qualification.
