Polypropylene (PP) impact copolymers are thermoplastic resins produced through the polymerization of propylene. Copolymers are created by introducing a heterophasic structure inside a semi-crystalline PP homopolymer matrix.
Polypropylene is one of the world’s most versatile plastic materials. With its broad range of properties, the material is used to produce everything from packaging and housewares to automotive and electrical applications.
Benefits and Applications
Typical customer applications include:
- Thick extrusion
- Pipe
- Film
- Thermoforming
- Injection molding (caps & closures, batteries, pails, automotive, TWIM)
Properties
- Good impact/stiffness performance even at low temperatures
- Good aesthetic characteristics
- Good creep resistance
