POLYPROPYLENE
General properties of the thermoplastic material include:
- Not a self supporting material. Requires structure to maintain form.
- Excellent chemical resistance properties. Call for specific information regarding your application.
- Continuous temperature rating up to 180 degrees F.
- Hot air weldable, but not solvent bondable.
- Common uses include rinse and etch housings for semiconductor, fume hoods and lab tables.
