Introduction of PP sink

Introduction of PP sink

1.Introduction to polypropylene materials


PP sink is made of welded polypropylene sheets. Polypropylene (abbreviated as PP) is a polymer made from propylene monomer by gas phase bulk polymerization, slurry polymerization, liquid phase bulk polymerization and other methods.
Physical properties
Appearance: Usually a translucent white solid, it can also present other colors depending on the additives
Density: The density is between 0.89 - 0.92g/cm³, which is one of the lighter varieties of plastics, making polypropylene products lighter and easier to carry and use.

Chemical properties
Chemical corrosion resistance: It has good stability to most acid, alkali and salt solutions, and can resist corrosion from a variety of organic solvents. For example, in the chemical industry, it can be used to store and transport some corrosive chemicals.
Antioxidation: It has good antioxidation properties at room temperature, but its antioxidation properties will decrease at high temperature or in an aerobic environment.

Mechanical properties
Strength and rigidity: It has high tensile strength, compressive strength and bending strength, and good rigidity. Its tensile strength is generally 21-39 MPa, bending strength is 42-56 MPa, and compressive strength is 39-56 MPa.
Toughness: The toughness is relatively poor at low temperatures, but it can be improved by modification.

4.Processing performance
Easy to form: can be manufactured into products of various shapes and specifications through various processing methods such as injection molding, extrusion, blow molding, etc.
Thermal stability: has good thermal stability during processing and is not easy to decompose.

2.Features of PP sink

Polypropylene is a lightweight, semi-crystalline thermoplastic with the following properties:

  • Excellent chemical corrosion resistance: It can resist corrosion from a variety of acids, alkalis, salts and other chemicals.
  • Good heat resistance: It can be used within a certain temperature range.
  • Impact resistance: It has a certain impact resistance.
  • Good insulation performance.
  • Good recyclability, which helps reduce the pollution of waste to the environment and meets the requirements of sustainable development.

3.Design and manufacturing

Usually, PP sinks are made of PP sheets welded according to design requirements. The sheets are cut according to the drawings and then welded (both inside and outside need to be welded). At the same time, if the sink is large, channel steel will be added to the outside and bottom of the sink for reinforcement to prevent the water tank from deforming during use. This manufacturing method allows the production of PP sinks to be more flexible and can be processed according to the seller's requirements, while also maintaining the surface finish of the sink.

4.Application fields

  • Home environment: can be used for washing and washing in kitchens, bathrooms and other areas.
  • Public places such as schools and hospitals: suitable for cleaning and sanitation in laboratories, bathrooms and other areas.
  • Catering industry: can be used for cleaning, processing and storage of food ingredients.
  • Industrial field: also used in some industrial environments that require corrosion resistance.
  • Industrial industry, can be used as electroplating tank or cleaning tank;
  • Chemical industry, PP material has good acid and alkali resistance and can be used for storage of chemical substance
