Polypropylene (PP) and Linear Low-Density Polyethylene (LLDPE) are both widely used plastics with different types, each suited for specific applications:
Types of Polypropylene (PP):
1 Homopolymer PP (PP-H):
*Properties: High strength, stiffness, and clarity.
*Applications: Used in packaging, textiles, automotive parts, and household goods.
2 Copolymer PP:
Random Copolymer:
*Properties: Better impact resistance, clarity, and flexibility.
*Applications: Ideal for food containers, pipes, and medical products.
3 Block Copolymer:
*Properties: Enhanced impact strength, particularly at low temperatures.
*Applications: Used in automotive components, industrial applications, and packaging.
4 Expanded PP (EPP):
*Properties: Lightweight, excellent energy absorption, and thermal insulation.
*Applications: Used in automotive parts, protective packaging, and insulation materials.
Types of Linear Low-Density Polyethylene (LLDPE):
1 Butene-Based LLDPE:
*Properties: Good tensile strength, flexibility, and impact resistance.
*Applications: Commonly used in general-purpose films, agricultural films, and packaging.
2 Hexene-Based LLDPE:
*Properties: Superior strength, puncture resistance, and clarity compared to butene-based LLDPE.
*Applications: High-performance films, heavy-duty bags, and stretch wraps.
3 Octene-Based LLDPE:
*Properties: Highest impact and tear resistance, with excellent stretch and seal properties.
*Applications: High-end films, food packaging, and stretch films.
4 Metallocene LLDPE (LLDPE):
*Properties: Enhanced processability, better mechanical properties, and clarity.
*Applications: High-performance packaging films, industrial wraps, and medical applications.
