The versatility of polypropylene allows for the manufacture of a wide variety of products. As a thermoplastic, this type of material can be easily moulded by applying heat to the material to achieve the desired shape. Polypropylenes 10% flake and 20% talc, are manufactured with different characteristics of fluidity and impact, with varied colours.
What is polypropylene?
Polypropylene is a semi-crystalline thermoplastic, which is produced by polymerising propylene in the presence of a specific stereo catalyst. Polypropylene has multiple applications and is therefore considered to be one of the thermoplastic products with the most promising future developments.
It is a fully recyclable product, its incineration has no polluting effect, and its production technology has the lowest environmental impact. This is an attractive feature compared to alternative materials.
Due to its characteristics of low density, hardness, heat resistance and versatility, this thermoplastic has multiple applications in sectors such as the automotive industry, containers and packaging for various products, carpets and upholstery, toys and toiletries, among many other objects of daily use.
What are the uses of polypropylene?
Due to its wide capacity to adapt to additives during its manufacture, polypropylene is used in the manufacture of:
- Toys and leisure
- Household goods
- Building materials
- Automotive parts
- Household appliances
- Pallets and boxes
What are the uses of PP C 10 and PP C 20 talc?
Due to their recycling and reusability, 10% and 20% talc flake polypropylenes contribute to the preservation of the environment.
These two types of polypropylenes are highly versatile copolymers for many applications and sectors. With medium density charge, they are suitable for the manufacture of gratings, reinforcements, channels and in automotive, spoylers, bumpers, among others.
In addition, they have a medium fluidity of 8 to 15 and are of medium impact. They come in colours such as white, black and grey.
