Polypropylene (PP)

Category

Polypropylene (PP)

A versatile “commodity plastic” that acts as both a plastic and a fiber, known for its high melting point and excellent chemical resistance. GAP Polymers provides specialized solutions for both rigid packaging and industrial components.

Polypropylene

Homopolymers

Offers high strength-to-weight ratio and stiffness. Used in packaging, textiles, and healthcare.

Random Copolymers

Enhanced clarity and flexibility. Ideal for transparent containers and thin-wall packaging.

Impact (Block) Copolymers

Superior toughness and impact resistance, even at low temperatures. Commonly used in automotive parts and crates.
