Proteus Co- Polymer Polypropylene is inexpensive, versatile, easy to fabricate and won't crack from road vibration. It works well in orthotic devices that require a lower degree of rigidity and can be used for applications requiring chemical resistance and/or FDA compliance.
Polypropylene Copolymer Features
High impact resistance strength
No moisture absorption
Meets food handling guidelines
More pliable than homopolymer
Chemical- and corrosion- resistant
Better resistance to cracking at low temperatures than other materials
Polypropylene Homopolymer
Polypropylene is a crystalline material with excellent chemical resistance, high strength-to-weight ratio and high performance in corrosive and thermoforming environments.
Polypropylene Homopolymer Features
Chemical - and corrosion-resistant
No moisture absorption
Appropriate for applications to 180°F (82°C)
Resists most acids, alkalis and solvents
Meets FDA 21CFR 177.1520
Thermoforming performance
Meets USDA guidelines for use in federally inspected meat and poultry packing facilities
