Polypropylene Foamed (PP-Foam)
Semi-finished products such as sheets and finished parts made of foamed polypropylene (PP)
Polypropylene foamed (short form : PPfoam): Foamed polypropylene sheets with micro air bubbles in a homogeneous material and smooth and flawless surfaces is a novel variant for plastic sheets. Instead of a foam core between two homogeneous surfaces, micro-air bubbles are introduced into this homogeneous sheet in the center of the sheet, resulting in a lighter weight of the sheet. However, in contrast to previously known PVC foam sheets, these do not lead to a dramatic drop in technical values if the surface should get damaged.
PP Foamed: The material - technical properties
With the lower weight, approx. 0.8 gr/cm³ instead of 0.92 gr/cm³, up to 16% material and weight can be saved ad hoc in some applications. The material is weldable and exactly machinable like homogeneous polypropylene sheets.
Individual modifications of PP (foamed)
Standard colors of polypropylene semi-finished products are natural & gray, however, special colors are possible from appropriate minimum quantities of 1,000 – 2,000 kg. Polypropylene plastic sheets are characterized by high variation possibilities : besides some standard special settings like polypropylene homopolymer, polypropylene copolymer, special settings like polypropylene flame retardant, polypropylene electrically conductive, polypropylene antistatic, polypropylene UV resistant, PP glass fiber reinforced and many more are possible.
