How to distinguish between PP, PPH, and PPC plastic materials?

Everyone knows about PP materials, but they are not familiar with PPH and PPC plastic materials. There are still many people who are not aware of the differences between PP, PPH, and PPC materials. Now let's take a look together!

Firstly, there are two main grades of polypropylene, polypropylene homopolymer and polypropylene copolymer.aDuPeliouPlastic-Best Polyethylene UHMWPE HDPE Factory in China

In terms of name, the homopolymer of polypropylene is PPH, which is a polymer of a single propylene monomer. The copolymer of PP is abbreviated as PPC, which is a copolymer of propylene monomer and ethylene monomer.aDuPeliouPlastic-Best Polyethylene UHMWPE HDPE Factory in China

Copolymerization PP is a type of reaction that involves the polymerization of organic monomers with homopolymers. Copolymerization refers to the reaction in which two or more compounds are polymerized into one substance under certain conditions. According to the type of monomer, it can be divided into binary and ternary copolymerization, and based on the polymer, it can be divided into the different substructures can be divided into random copolymerization, block copolymerization, alternating copolymerization, graft copolymerization, and homopolymerization. PP is formed by polymerization of a single propylene monomer, with high crystallinity, good mechanical strength and heat resistance. Polypropylene copolymers are formed by copolymerization with a small amount of ethylene monomer during polymerization, which has high impact resistance strength.aDuPeliouPlastic-Best Polyethylene UHMWPE HDPE Factory in China

The two have very similar properties, but the difference in appearance and performance is the difference between the two types.aDuPeliouPlastic-Best Polyethylene UHMWPE HDPE Factory in China

Their common characteristics are:aDuPeliouPlastic-Best Polyethylene UHMWPE HDPE Factory in China

1. The relative density is small, only 0.89-0.91, making it one of the lightest varieties of plastics.aDuPeliouPlastic-Best Polyethylene UHMWPE HDPE Factory in China

2. Good mechanical properties, except for impact resistance, all other mechanical properties are better than polyethylene, and the molding and processing performance is good.aDuPeliouPlastic-Best Polyethylene UHMWPE HDPE Factory in China

3. It has high heat resistance and can be continuously used at temperatures ranging from 110 to 120 ℃.aDuPeliouPlastic-Best Polyethylene UHMWPE HDPE Factory in China

4. Good chemical properties, almost no water absorption, and does not react with the vast majority of chemicals.aDuPeliouPlastic-Best Polyethylene UHMWPE HDPE Factory in China

5. The texture is pure and non-toxic.aDuPeliouPlastic-Best Polyethylene UHMWPE HDPE Factory in China

6. Good electrical insulation.aDuPeliouPlastic-Best Polyethylene UHMWPE HDPE Factory in China

7. The transparency of polypropylene products is better than that of high-density polyethylene products.aDuPeliouPlastic-Best Polyethylene UHMWPE HDPE Factory in China

The difference between PPH and PPC is:aDuPeliouPlastic-Best Polyethylene UHMWPE HDPE Factory in China

1. Copolymerized polypropylene is easier to process,aDuPeliouPlastic-Best Polyethylene UHMWPE HDPE Factory in China

2. PPH has good rigidity, but poor impact resistance, especially low temperature impact resistance and poor creep resistance,aDuPeliouPlastic-Best Polyethylene UHMWPE HDPE Factory in China

3. PPH is harder and more widely used. With excellent chemical resistance and the ability to connect and weld through hot melt, this material becomes the ideal plastic for chemical storage tanks and structures in corrosive environments. Compared to PPH, PPC has a softer material, but it is more durable because it has moreaDuPeliouPlastic-Best Polyethylene UHMWPE HDPE Factory in China

Good impact strength, even at low temperatures, has higher stress resistance and toughness.aDuPeliouPlastic-Best Polyethylene UHMWPE HDPE Factory in China

4. PPH board has higher temperature resistance than PP board and can withstand the erosion of strong chemicals.aDuPeliouPlastic-Best Polyethylene UHMWPE HDPE Factory in China

5. PPH is just one type of PP. PPH sheet has great advantages in strength, acid and alkali resistance, aging resistance and appearance. The appearance transparency of PPH is better.aDuPeliouPlastic-Best Polyethylene UHMWPE HDPE Factory in China
