Polypropylene Plastic available from Allplastics Engineering
Polypropylene is a highly chemical resistant plastic available in sheet and rod from Allplastics. Polypropylene is generally grey (mustardy) colour however it is also available in a natural (milky) colour in some thicknesses. Polypropylene is lightweight, with better strength and higher temperature rating than polyethylene. It is easily fabricated, formed, and welded. Thus, it is ideal for use in corrosion resistant applications. It exhibits good electrical properties and is non-toxic for food contact.
Key Features:
- Very low specific density
- Tough
- Very low water absorption
- Corrosion resistant
- Resistant to dilute acids, cleaning agents, numerous solvents
- Very good electrical insulation
- Difficult to bond
- Easily welded
- Low density
- Becomes brittle at low temperatures
- Food grade
Temperature range: -10°C to 100°C
Applications:
- Battery cases
- Tank Liners
- Chemical apparatus
- Hoods, Fume cupboards
- Water treatment plants
- Wall Cladding
- Food processing industry
- Insulators
- Ventilation ducts
- Pallets
- Drip pans
- Electroplating barrels
Polypropylene also offers good thermal and electrical insulation and is also resistant to many acids, alkalis and organic solvents making it an ideal choice for fabrication jobs in chemical and effluent treatment plants. For decorative and lighting applications see Polypropylene Films.
