Description
Natural Polypropylene Plastic Rod 150mm Dia
The 150mm Natural Polypropylene Rod is manufactured from Polypropylene Homopolymer (PPH), a lightweight engineering plastic valued for its durability, rigidity and resistance to aggressive chemicals. With a specific gravity of 0.91, it offers a low-density material solution that can even float on water.
PPH operates across a temperature range of 0°C to +100°C, providing greater heat tolerance than PPC. Its excellent resistance to acids, including sulphuric acid, makes it a suitable choice for chemical storage and industrial fabrication. The material also features minimal water absorption, good impact resistance and a naturally non-stick surface that helps prevent unwanted material build-up.
