PP foam, known as Polypropylene Foam, is a lightweight porous material obtained by foaming polypropylene resin through physical or chemical methods. This material has good cushioning, thermal and acoustic insulation properties, and has a wide range of applications in packaging, construction, automotive and many other fields.
Features of PP foam
1. lightweight: due to its internal structure contains a large number of bubbles, making PP foam is lighter than ordinary plastic materials.
2. excellent cushioning performance: can effectively absorb the impact, to protect the goods from damage.
3. good water resistance: not easy to absorb water, suitable for use in wet environments.
4. Strong thermal stability: maintain good performance within a certain temperature range without deformation.
5. Environmentally friendly and recyclable: PP material itself belongs to recyclable resources, with little pollution to the environment.
6. Easy to process and mold: it can be cut into different shapes and sizes according to the needs to meet diversified needs.
7. Good heat and sound insulation effect: due to its unique structural characteristics, it can effectively isolate the external heat transfer and noise interference.
Application of PP foam
1. Packaging industry: as a cushioning material for electronic products, home appliances and other valuable fragile commodities in the transportation packaging, in order to reduce the collision damage in the logistics process. 2.
2. Building decoration: used as floor matting, wall sound insulation boards, etc., to improve the comfort of living; can also be used as a waterproof insulation layer applied to the roof construction.
3. Automotive industry: PP foam is used in the interior door trim, seat padding, etc., which not only improves the riding experience, but also enhances the safety performance of the vehicle.
4. sporting goods: such as yoga mats, sports protective gear and other products to add an appropriate amount of PP foam components, can increase the softness and elasticity, better adapt to the human body curve.
5. Agriculture: Making greenhouse cover material or plant cultivation substrate helps to regulate soil moisture and promote crop growth.
