Introduction of polypropylene.

Introduction of polypropylene.

Polypropylene is a synthetic resin built up by the polymerization of propylene. One of the important family of polyolefin resins, polypropylene is molded or extruded into many plastic products in which toughness, flexibility, light weight, and heat resistance are required. It is also spun into fibres for employment in industrial and household textiles. Propylene can also be polymerized with ethylene to produce an elastic ethylene-propylene copolymer.It is the starting point of polyolefin (PO) textiles production,is plastic resins, polymerised from propylene in the case of PP. It is supplied to customers most commonly in the form of pellets in 25 kg bags on pallets or in 25 tonne bulk loads.On the other hand,polypropylene can be used for products now and can be recycled into products for the future as well. For example,some weed mat suppliers think so as their products are always used for 3-5 years, then degrade day by day.

Polypropylene is used for a wide number of different products. Due to the resistance to fatigue, this means that it can be used on items that are going to have high stress, such as hinge mechanisms on water bottles and more. It is also used in packaging(for example,polypropylene sacks,weed control fabric,etc.), automotive(such as auto parts), electric & electronics, and household appliances, building & construction and industrial applications.In manufacturing these products polypropylene offers many different advantages. These advantages allow it to be used for a wide variety of different products and uses, from high heat to cold weather and more.Polypropylene properties vary according to molecular weight, method of production, and the copolymers involved. Generally polypropylene has demonstrated certain advantages in improved strength, stiffness and higher temperature capability over polyethylene.

A report has estimated that polypropylene consumption worldwide is set to grow at a CAGR of 4.5 percent from 42.3 million tons in 2011, which would set it to reach 62.4 million tons by 2020. The packaging industry along is expected to consume around 20.1 million tons of PP in 2020 as demand for food and flexible packaging continues to rise.This demand for polypropylene will rise as a result of economic growth developing industrialization. Most of this growth is in developing markets, particularly China, South Korea, Japan, and India.

A business man who always specilized in importing and exporting,import and export many kinds of plastic raw materials and packaging products.
