Polypropylene

The non-polar structure of Polypropylene Sheet and Rod gives it a very high molecular mass. This makes PP Sheet and Rod highly resistant to chemicals and to aqueous solutions of salts, acids and alkalis.

Polypropylene homopolymers have a high level of stiffness and toughness at room temperature. This together with their capacity to repel water makes them a good choice for mechanical and structural applications.

Polypropylene Sheet properties ensure that this material is a hard, stiff, easily workable material with excellent toughness and available in Polypropylene Sheet, Rod, Tube and Polypropylene Weld Rod.

It is an easily weldable thermoplastic which makes it ideal for tanks, fittings and vessels for the mineral processing, mining and galvanising industries.
