CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
| Physical Description | Polypropylene is a tan to white odorless solid. Less dense than water and insoluble in water. Hence floats on water. (USCG, 1999) |
|---|---|
| Color/Form | TRANSLUCENT WHITE SOLID |
| Odor | ODORLESS |
| Density | 0.9 at 68 °F (USCG, 1999) - Less dense than water; will float |
| Stability/Shelf Life | POOR RESISTANCE TO SUNLIGHT WHEN UNSTABILIZED /ISOTACTIC FORM/ |
| Other Experimental Properties | SOLID MATERIAL SOFTENS AT ABOUT 155 °C; KEEPS STRENGTH DOWN TO -100 °C /ISOTACTIC FORM/ |
| Chemical Classes | Plastics & Rubber -> Polymers |
