Polypropylene or Polypropene (PP) is a thermoplastic polymer used in a wide variety of applications including plastic parts and reusable containers of various types, pipe clamps, and in many applications in chemical industries.
The large number of end use applications for PP are often possible because of the ability to tailor grades with specific molecular properties and additives during its manufacturing.
ADVANTAGES:
Polypropylene has very good resistance to fatigue
Polypropylene is rugged, often somewhat stiffer than some other plastics.
Reasonably economical, and can be made translucent, when uncolored.
