  2. Polypropylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polypropylene

    Polypropylene belongs to the group of polyolefins and is partially crystalline and non-polar. Its properties are similar to polyethylene, but it is slightly harder and more heat-resistant. It is a white, mechanically rugged material and has a high chemical resistance. [1]

  3. List of synthetic polymers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_synthetic_polymers

    Polypropylene: PP: Resistant to acids and alkalies, High tensile strength: Auto parts, industrial fibers, food containers, liner in bags, dishware and as a wrapping material for textiles and food Polystyrene (thermocole) PS: Thermal insulator. Properties depends on the form, expanded form is tough and rigid: Petri dishes, CD case, plastic cutlery

  4. Polyolefin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyolefin

    Polypropylene is commonly used in car bumpers, interior trims, and other components [19] where TiO₂ is added to improve the UV stability of the plastic, ensuring that parts do not degrade or lose color when exposed to sunlight over time. [20] Polyethylene films are widely used in agriculture for greenhouses, mulching, and silage wraps. [21]

  5. Surface chemistry of cooking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_chemistry_of_cooking

    Cooking techniques can be broken down into two major categories: Oil based and water based cooking techniques. Both oil and water based techniques rely on the vaporization of water to cook the food. Oil based cooking techniques have significant surface interactions that greatly affect the quality of the food they produce.

  7. Propylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propylene

    Polypropylene manufacturers consume nearly two thirds of global production. [17] Polypropylene end uses include films, fibers, containers, packaging, and caps and closures. Propene is also used for the production of chemicals such as propylene oxide, acrylonitrile, cumene, butyraldehyde, and acrylic acid. In the year 2013 about 85 million ...

  8. Polypropylene glycol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polypropylene_glycol

    Polypropylene glycol is produced by ring-opening polymerization of propylene oxide. The initiator is an alcohol and the catalyst a base, usually potassium hydroxide. When the initiator is ethylene glycol or water the polymer is linear. With a multifunctional initiator like glycerine, pentaerythritol or sorbitol the polymer branches out ...
