Polypropylene Sheet - Black | Cut to Size | PPC Copolymer Plastic Panel | Food Safe
Premium Black Polypropylene Copolymer (PPC) sheet, cut to size. Lightweight, highly impact resistant, and chemically resistant. PPC offers superior toughness compared to Homopolymer (PPH), with a wider temperature range reaching down to -20C. Weldable and FDA food compliant. Ideal for chemical tanks, protective cladding, signage, and general fabrication.
Note: Supplied without protective film.
Product Highlights
- Material: Polypropylene Copolymer (PPC)
- Colour: Black
- Surface Finish: Smooth
- Temperature Range: -20C to +80C short term
- Specific Gravity: 0.91 - lighter than water
- Food Compliance: FDA approved. EU 10/2011 not applicable for PPC - contact us if EU food compliance is required.
- Sheet Size Tolerance: +/-3mm - if tighter tolerances are required, please contact us before ordering
Properties
- Excellent Impact Strength: Notch impact strength of 45 kJ/m2 - significantly tougher than PPH Homopolymer. Ideal for impact-prone environments and protective applications.
- Excellent Chemical Resistance: Outstanding resistance to acids, alkalis, solvents, and most chemicals. Ideal for chemical tanks, liners, and processing equipment.
- Sub-Zero Performance: Suitable for use down to -20C. Better cold temperature performance than PPH which becomes brittle at 0C.
- Lightest Engineering Plastic: Specific gravity of 0.91 - lighter than water. Easy to handle, transport, and install.
- Very Low Moisture Absorption: Less than 0.1% - maintains dimensional stability in wet and humid environments.
- Weldable: Can be hot gas or extrusion welded. Ideal for fabricated chemical tanks, liners, and bespoke assemblies.
- Unnotched Impact: No break under test conditions.
Also Known As
PPC sheet, polypropylene copolymer sheet, PP sheet, black polypropylene panel, chemical resistant plastic sheet, impact resistant polypropylene, food safe polypropylene sheet.
Applications
- Chemical Tank Fabrication: Weldable and chemically resistant. Ideal for fabricated tanks, liners, baffles, and fittings.
- Protective Cladding: Superior impact resistance makes PPC the preferred choice for protective wall cladding, machine guarding, and impact-prone environments.
- Signage and Advertising: Lightweight, easy to cut and fabricate. Widely used for display panels, signage, and point-of-sale materials.
- Food Processing: FDA compliant. Suitable for food contact components, guides, and handling equipment. Contact us if EU 10/2011 compliance is required.
- Packaging: Lightweight and chemical resistant. Suitable for industrial packaging and containment applications.
- General Fabrication: Easy to cut, machine, and weld. Lightweight alternative to heavier engineering plastics where impact resistance is the priority.
