Polypropylene homopolymers are thermoplastic resins produced through the polymerization of propylene with Ziegler-Natta catalysts.

Polypropylene (PP) is a thermoplastic “addition polymer” made from a combination of propylene monomers.

*Properties

• High strength to weight ratio.
• Excellent chemical resistance.
• High performance in thermoforming and corrosive environments.
• No moisture absorption.
• Resists most acids, alkalis, degreasing agents, and organic solvents.
• Good weldability.
• Lightweight.
• Non-toxic and non-staining.

*Uses

The homopolymers can be used in different processing technologies, such as injection molding, blow molding, film, fiber, sheet extrusion, and thermoforming. Main applications include packaging, textiles, healthcare, pipes, automotive and electrical applications..
