Pressbox (Press Release) - Summary-Polypropylene is a thermoplastic addition polymer made through using combination of propylene monomers. Polypropylene has a low density relative as compare to other common plastics which translates to weight savings.
Polypropylene is a thermoplastic “addition polymer” made through using combination of propylene monomers. Polypropylene films is generally use in a huge variety of applications for including packaging for consumer products, different plastic parts for various industries including the devices like living hinges, textiles, special, and automotive industry. In today’s date it is one of the most produced plastics in the world. According to some reports and current global demand for the material generates an annual market of about 45 million metric tons and it is estimated that the demand will increase approx. 62 million metric tons by 2020.
Polypropylene is relatively a slippery surface which can surely make it a possible substitute for plastics like Acetal according to low friction applications like gears or for use as a contact point for furniture. Even a negative aspect of this kind of quality is that it can be difficult to bond Polypropylene films to other surfaces (i.e. it is not adhere well to certain glues that work fine with other plastics and sometimes has to be welded in the event that forming a joint is required). Although, it is a slippery at that molecular level, it does have a relatively high coefficient of friction - which is why nylon, PTFE, or acetal would be used instead.
The result of Solvent Adhesives is largely determined by the polymer system in the formulation system. The choice of adhesive type depends on the particular environmental and substrates resistance needed – temperature resistance, plasticizer and oil resistance, etc. Many of the solvent based adhesives contain flammable solvents which need proper precautions for safe handling.
