Polypropylene (PP) is a thermoplastic addition polymer, which is used predominantly in injection molding applications. PP is inexpensive and easy to access, and due to its semi-crystalline property it possesses a high flexural strength.

The properties of Polypropylene include...

• Semi-rigid

• Translucent

• Good chemical resistance

• Tough

• Good fatigue resistance

• Integral hinge property

  Good heat resistance.Polypropylene Uses

Polypropylene is featured in an array of injection molding applications, including the packaging of consumer products as well as being regularly used in plastic components in the automotive industry. Because of its relatively low density and weight, polypropylene can also be used in a variety of molded PP products such as:

Children's toys

Sporting goods

Caps

Closures

Automotive applications

Food trays

Cups and to-go containers

Household goods and appliances like dishwashers
