(Summary description)
Polypropylene (PP), also known as polypropene, is a thermoplastic polymer that is quite durable, so it can withstand daily wear and tear, and is resistant to cracking and stress. Polypropylene can be used in a variety of building and construction applications, including: siding, air and moisture barrier membranes, carpet textiles, films and sheets used in insulating building wraps, industrial adhesives and tapes, and plastic parts included in piping.
Properties
Lightweight, tough and flexible
Heat resistant (high melting point (around 160°C) – used in microwaves, dishwashers, food containers
Chemically inert
Impact and freeze-resistant
High shatter resistance
Low moisture absorption
Mould resistant
Low density allows lower-weight mouldings to be made
Resistant to fats and organic solvents
Accepts colour and dye without degrading
Reasonably inexpensive
Does not contain BPA (bisphenol A - which some claim can leach into food products)
Fatigue resistance – allows use as a plastic hinge
It can float in water
Typical applications
It has a large number of end-use applications in the construction industry due to the wide range of grades available and the use of additives to modify properties:
PP fibres are added to concrete to increase strength and reduce cracking and spalling
Non-woven fabrics for ground stabilisation
Roofing membranes (waterproofing top-layer in single-ply systems)
Reinforcement in construction and road paving
Electrical cable insulation (alternative to PVC)
Piping systems
Carpets, rugs and upholstery
Medical and laboratory equipment
Reusable containers
Plastic machine parts
Industrial rope and cordage
