Polypropylene, thermoplastic polymer produced from propylene monomers.
Polypropylene (PP), also known as polypropene
, is a thermoplastic polymer used in a wide variety of applications. It is produced via chain-growth polymerization from the monomer propylene
. Polypropylene belongs to the group of polyolefins and is partially crystalline and non-polar.
Characterized by low density (0.895-0.92 g/cm³) and it's toughness and flexibility. More details here.
