As a thermoplastic, polypropylene has excellent physical properties, thermal properties, chemical stability, processing properties, electrical insulation and refractive index. This makes it have a wide range of application prospects in various fields, such as packaging, automobiles, home appliances, electrical electronics and so on.
With the continuous progress of science and technology and the continuous optimization of the process, the performance of this material will be further improved. It will provide more possibilities for the development of various fields.
Performance
1. Physical properties
Polypropylene is a semi-crystalline thermoplastic with high strength and rigidity, and good wear resistance and fatigue resistance. Its density is low, its weight is light, and it is easy to handle and process. It has a good surface gloss and is easy to color and print, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. In addition, it also has good tensile strength and compressive strength, and can withstand a certain external force.
2. Thermal performance
It has excellent thermal properties and a high melting point, usually between 160-170 ° C. So it can maintain good stability at high temperatures. At the same time, the heat resistance of this material is also good, and it can withstand higher temperatures in a short time without deformation or decomposition. However, its low temperature toughness is relatively poor, and it is prone to embrittlement at lower temperatures, so it needs attention when used in cold environments.
3. Chemical stability
The chemical stability is good, and it has strong resistance to a variety of chemical reagents and solvents. It is not easily eroded by acids, alkalis, salts and other chemicals. So it is suitable for making packaging and storage devices for various chemicals. However, it may undergo decomposition reactions under the action of strong oxidants such as oxidizing agents, concentrated nitric acid and concentrated sulfuric acid. Therefore, caution is required when used in specific chemical environments.
Applications of Polypropylene
- Packaging industry
It is an important raw material in the packaging industry. And it can be made into various bags, packaging boxes, plastic bottles and so on. Because of its excellent heat resistance and chemical stability, it is especially suitable for food packaging.
- Fibers and textiles
Textiles made of polypropylene fiber have good elasticity and wear resistance, and are often used in the manufacture of carpets, ropes, clothing and so on.
- Automobile industry
It plays an important role in automobile manufacturing, used to manufacture components such as bumpers, dashboards, door interior panels, and so on, because it is light and strong, which helps to make cars lighter and improve fuel efficiency.
- Household appliance
This material is widely used in the manufacture of household appliances such as refrigerators, washing machines and air conditioners. It can manufacture shells, internal parts, etc.
- Construction industry
The pipes, plates and other building materials made of it have excellent corrosion resistance and weather resistance, and are suitable for outdoor environment.
- Medical field
Its non-toxicity and good biocompatibility enable it to be used in the medical field, such as the manufacture of medical devices, disposable syringes, infusion bags, etc.
