Details of PP Sheet Product
PP Sheet, namely polypropylene sheet, is a thermoplastic plastic sheet made from polypropylene as the main raw material through extrusion molding and other processes. Polypropylene is a kind of general - purpose plastic with excellent performance, featuring small density, good chemical stability and balanced mechanical properties, which makes PP Sheet widely used in many fields such as industry, agriculture and daily necessities.
Product Characteristics
- Lightweight: PP Sheet has a relatively small density, about 0.90 - 0.91g/cm³, and it is one of the lighter common plastic sheets. This characteristic makes it more convenient in transportation and installation, which can effectively reduce relevant costs. It is especially suitable for scenarios with strict requirements on weight, such as automobile interior parts and light packaging materials.
- Excellent Chemical Stability: It has good corrosion resistance to most acids, alkalis, salts and organic solvents. At room temperature, it is not easy to be eroded by these chemical substances, and can be used to make linings of chemical equipment, laboratory utensils, containers for storing corrosive substances, etc. However, it should be noted that its resistance to some strong oxidants at high temperatures is relatively weak.
- Good Mechanical Properties: It has certain tensile strength, bending strength and impact strength, which can meet the use requirements under general working conditions. It has good rigidity and is not easy to deform, so it can be used to make structural parts, pallets, etc. At the same time, PP Sheet also has certain toughness and is not easy to break when subjected to a certain impact.
- Good Heat Resistance: PP Sheet has a wide range of use temperatures, generally can be used for a long time between - 20℃ and 120℃, and the short - term use temperature can be higher. This characteristic makes it suitable for scenarios that need to contact hot water or work in a higher temperature environment, such as the water receiving tray of water dispensers and the conveyor belt in food processing.
Product Specifications
- Thickness: The common thickness range is 0.3mm - 50mm, and PP Sheets of different thicknesses are suitable for different scenarios. For example, thin sheets of 0.3mm - 3mm can be used in packaging, printing and other fields; Thick plates of 3mm - 50mm can be used to make structural parts, equipment shells, etc.
- Size: The standard sizes are usually 1000×2000mm, 1220×2440mm, 1500×3000mm, etc. At the same time, it can also be customized according to the specific needs of customers to produce non - standard size PP Sheets to meet the installation and use requirements of different projects.
- Color: There are mainly natural colors (translucent or milky white), white, black, gray, etc., and other colors can also be customized as needed. Natural color PP Sheet has certain light transmittance, white PP Sheet is often used in fields with high hygiene requirements such as food and medicine, and black PP Sheet has certain light shading property, which can be used in some scenarios that need to avoid light.
Application Fields
- Packaging Field: PP Sheet is a common material in the packaging industry, which can be used to make various packaging containers, such as food packaging boxes, medicine packaging trays, cosmetics packaging boxes, etc. Because of its hygiene, non - toxicity and good chemical resistance, it can effectively protect the items in the package from pollution. In addition, PP Sheet can also be used to make packaging materials such as shrink film and stretch film, which are used for bundling and protecting products.
- Industrial Field: In industrial production, PP Sheet can be used to make various parts and equipment shells, such as instrument shells, mechanical protective covers, water tanks, etc. Due to its excellent mechanical properties, reinforced PP Sheet can also be used to make automobile bumpers, instrument panels and other automobile parts. At the same time, the corrosion resistance of PP Sheet makes it suitable for the lining of chemical pipelines and storage tanks, etc.
- Food Processing and Catering Industry: It can be used to make worktables, conveyor belts, food turnover boxes, etc. in food processing workshops. Because of its good heat resistance, it can also be used to make microwave - oven - specific lunch boxes, water receiving boxes of water dispensers and other utensils that are in contact with food.
- Construction Field: It can be used to make construction formwork, partition boards, decorative boards, etc. Weather - resistant PP Sheet can be used for outdoor building decoration, such as sunshades, canopies, etc. In addition, PP Sheet can also be used to make pipes and pipe fittings for construction.
