What is PP?
One of the thermoplastics that are most frequently used worldwide is polypropylene (PP). Plastic containers, plastic components for machinery and equipment, and even fibers and textiles are only a few uses for polypropylene. It is a semi-crystalline, rigid thermoplastic that was initially polymerized in 1951 and is now widely used for a variety of commercial and residential purposes. At roughly 45 metric tons today, the demand for polypropylene is thought to be the highest it has ever been.
How is PP made?
In a slurry, solution, or gas phase process, propylene monomer is heated and compressed under pressure in the presence of a catalyst system to generate polypropylene. At a relatively low temperature and pressure, polymerization produces translucent but easily colored materials. By adjusting the catalyst and the production environment, the plastic's properties can be modified.
Ethylene and propylene are produced by cracking naphtha (crude oil light distillate). Ethylene, propylene, and other chemicals are separated from higher alkenes using low temperature fractional distillation. Early in the 1950s, propylene was a byproduct of ethylene production; today, it is an important material in and of itself.
Uses of PP
The PP is slippery and its surface is tactile. It is used to make various things required at house and also in medical field. Following things can be made with PP-
