Description
110mm Polypropylene Round Plastic Rod Natural
Natural Polypropylene Homopolymer (PPH) Rod 110mm is a lightweight thermoplastic material designed for producing large industrial components exposed to demanding chemical and mechanical conditions. With a specific gravity of approximately 0.91, it is easy to handle and can even float on water.
Its strong resistance to acids, including sulphuric acid, makes it a suitable material for manufacturing chemical storage equipment and associated fittings. PPH maintains good rigidity at higher operating temperatures, with a working range of 0°C to +100°C, exceeding that of polypropylene copolymer (PPC). Low moisture absorption helps preserve its material properties, while excellent weldability allows it to be shaped and joined for bespoke fabrication projects.
The naturally non-stick surface helps prevent substances such as cement and concrete from adhering to components. Its impact resistance also supports the production of protective parts, plugs, bungs and thread guards used in industrial environments. This natural-grade material is food compliant for suitable applications.
