Fillamentum Polypropylene PP 2320 is a high-tech filament made of commodity plastic polypropylene (PP). It excels by its great mechanical properties, toughness, chemical resistance, or electrical insulation.
This material repels water, therefore, it is ideal for making parts of a pipeline, in the production of sinks and tanks. Since it has good electrical insulation properties, it’s ideal for the printing of insulation of electrical cables as an alternative to PVC.
Features:
- Electrical insulator
- Thermal resistance up to 100 °C, withstands contact with hot water
- Low moisture and water absorption
- Good impact resistance
- Weather resistance
- Chemical resistance against a wide range of substances (e.g. acids, bases, salts, oils, water)
- The lowest density from our portfolio
- Flexibility down to -40 °C – standard polypropylene gets brittle below 0 °C
- Toughness, resilience in thin layer
- Bendable without stress whitening
- Great interlayer adhesion and smooth surface
- Less flexible than competitive PP filaments
- Safe for food contact applications
- Safe for use in electrical and electronic equipment
- Recyclable, non-toxic
