Polypropylene Plastic
Polypropylene has excellent chemical resistance and is strong but lightweight. It is easy to machine or fabricate and can be bonded using a variety of plastic welding techniques. It is also FDA compliant and can be used in food processing environments. Polypropylene exhibits good resistance to fatigue, meaning it can withstand repeated stress or load cycles without experiencing failure. This property is advantageous in applications subject to constant flexing or bending. Polypropylene is readily recyclable, contributing to its sustainability profile.
