| Specifications of polypropylene components |
Polypropylene is a thermoplastic resin, partially crystalline, that belongs to polyolefin family.
It is the result of the polypropylene polymerization (C3H6) with catalysts. The state-of-the-art homopolymer polypropylene is the material that offers the best performance at in-between temperatures and it is a valid alternative to metal in industrial and non- industrial uses.
Main benefits:
> Great resistance to bending stress
> Great resistance to impacts
> Good thermal resistance
> Good chemical resistance
