Polypropylene Homopolymer | AirSweep Material Flow Test

Polypropylene Homopolymer (PPH) is a thermoplastic resin with a wide range of applications.
PPH is durable and resistant to chemicals and retains its shape even after a lot of bending and flexing. It is often used to make packaging and commodity plastics, textiles, or construction materials such as pipes, sheets, and moldings.
However, shredded polypropylene shavings will not flow readily. It is lightweight, airy, and becomes spongey when compressed. Even with minimal handling, it produces small amounts of dust. Polypropylene responds to aeration, so pneumatic flow aids like AirSweep can prevent it from bridging, arching, and interlocking in hoppers and other vessels.
