PP (Polypropylene) – Polypropylene is a plastic that is used in many different industries. One of the common usage for polypropylene is to make laboratory equipment that require frequent sterilisation by heat. Its high resistance against temperature makes it an ideal material for this kind of application. Other properties includes:

– Good mechanical strength
– Good corrosion resistance
– Heat resistance
– Good resistance to fatigue

PVC is one of the most used general plastic, it has one of the best ratios of economic cost to performance. Application for PVC ranges from applications in daily life all the way to specialized industrial applications. Some of PVC properties include:

– Good dimension stability
– Self-extinguishing
– Electrical insulation
– Corrosion resistance
– Light Weight
– Low Moisture Absorption

Nylon/ Cast Nylon has a higher compression strength and impact resistance as compared to other engineering plastics. Some of Nylon’s properties includes:

-Corrosion and wear resistance
-Improved component working life and reducing maintenance
-High toughness
-High mechanical strength
-High fatigue resistance
-Shock absorbant and resistance
-Self lubrication and good noise dampening
