PP – Polypropylen
General Description
Polypropylene (PP) is a thermoplastic polymer from the polyolefin group. It is cost-effective to produce and is therefore one of the most widely used plastics in the world.
PP is physiologically harmless and free of plasticizers. In its virgin form, it is the lightest and simultaneously the hardest of all known plastics. Due to the fundamental variability of its polymeric molecular structure, it is possible to synthesize PP grades with different technical parameters.
Applications
Polypropylene (PP) is a bulk plastic that is suitable for the production of high-volume items across various applications due to its cost-effectiveness, ease of thermal formability, and favorable mechanical properties. The majority of polypropylene produced today is used for automotive components, where it successfully replaces metallic materials, as well as in the sanitary industry. Polypropylene fibers are also used in industrial textiles, ropes, and fishing nets.
Due to its physiologically harmless nature, polypropylene is used for medical products, primarily disposable items such as syringes, spatulas, and containers, as well as in mass catering for disposable dishes and cutlery. For the same reason, polypropylene is also ideal for packaging in the food and pharmaceutical industries. PP chemical hoses are used as rigid conduits for transporting liquids and sensitive media in medical, chemical, and biochemical laboratories, as well as in the pharmaceutical and food industries. In industrial and research laboratories, polypropylene materials and tools have proven to be effective replacements for glass.
Finally, polypropylene is not only used to manufacture office supplies or products with significant amounts of the plastic but also for specialty papers for banknotes, certificates, and other high-value prints.
