Polypropylene homopolymerized

abbreviated as PP-H, is a special form of polypropylene produced by the homopolymerization of propylene.

PP-H is characterized by certain properties that make it suitable for specific applications in various industries. 

Properties of PP-H:

  • High temperature resistance:
    PP-H has good temperature resistance and can be used at higher temperatures than conventional polypropylene. It remains stable at temperatures up to around 100°C.

  • Chemical resistance:
    PP-H is resistant to a wide range of chemicals, including acids, bases and solvents. This property makes it attractive for applications in the chemical industry.

  • Good strength:
    PP-H has good mechanical strength and can be used in structural applications.

  • Low water absorption:
    PP-H only absorbs small amounts of water, which results in low moisture absorption.

  • Electrical insulation:
    Like most types of polypropylene, PP-H is also a good insulator and is used in the electrical industry for the manufacture of electrical components.

  • Lightweight:
    PP-H is lightweight compared to many other materials, which makes it easy to handle and use.

Applications of PP-H:

PP-H is used in various industries for specific applications, including:

  • Chemical industry:
    Pipelines, containers, fittings and other components due to its chemical resistance.

  • Construction:
    Components for construction, especially where a certain temperature resistance and strength are required.

  • Electrical industry:
    insulators, housings and other electrical components due to its good electrical insulation properties.

  • Automotive industry:
    Parts where a combination of strength, temperature resistance and low weight is required.

Due to its specific properties, PP-H is a versatile choice for applications where good chemical and temperature resistance is required.
