1) Introduction to Polypropylene

Polypropylene is available in homopolymer, copolymer, orthopedic and repair grades. Polypropylene is a versatile polymer that can be used in a variety of applications requiring chemical resistance, high impact resistance and high strength-to-weight ratio. Polypropylene meets FDA and USDA guidelines, does not absorb moisture and is easy to form. These qualities make polypropylene a very popular solution for many every day and industrial applications.

Polypropylene is easy to weld and machine, while maintaining acid and abrasion resistance.

Polypropylene (PP) is a member of the environmentally friendly polyolefin family. Like its sister product HDPE, PP's electrical properties, chemical resistance and temperature resistance make polypropylene sheet an excellent choice for many industrial applications. Polypropylene sheet has excellent contact clarity and resists deformation in smaller sizes, making it ideal for applications requiring heat sealing, such as packaging materials, boxes, adhesives and product combinations. In addition to the stock sizes and finishes we offer, our polypropylene sheets can be manufactured to specific colors, thicknesses and finishes.

Trust our polypropylene sheets to help you find the right solution for your needs and meet them quickly. You can find more information about polypropylene sheet on our website.

 

2) Common problems of polypropylene sheet

Does polypropylene sheet (PP) have good insulating properties? Yes, but not as well as polyester film products. PP sheets are not as heat resistant, but hold up well at low temperatures.

Does the polypropylene sheet have good electrical properties? No. Electricity generates heat, but because of the low melting point of polyolefins, you want to keep this material away from high temperatures.

Is the polypropylene sheet resistant to tearing? Somewhat. All polyolefin sheets stretch a little before they break.

Can polypropylene sheets be recycled? Yes, they can as long as they can be recycled with other polypropylene resin materials. Polypropylene sheets can be recycled with any other material that has this symbol.

Are polypropylene sheets suitable for outdoor use? Yes! Polypropylene is a stable material under outdoor conditions. However, it does not have a specific service life rating; the life of the product will vary with the outdoor conditions to which the film is exposed.

Can polypropylene sheets come into direct contact with skin? Although polypropylene is perfectly safe for direct and indirect skin contact, it has not been certified as such.

 

3) Print job with polypropylene sheet

Polypropylene sheets are compatible with screen printing and offset printing. Before attempting to print on this type of material, contact your ink supplier to see what types of inks are available for polypropylene sheets. We can even provide you with a material sample sheet that you can then have the ink supplier analyze to determine the best ink system to use with your process. This material cannot be printed by digital methods, especially PPC / laser printing. In addition, inkjet inks will not adhere to the surface of this film unless they are solvent-based. Contact us today about your printing requirements so we can help you get the material you need.
