Light Weight but Compression Resistant Fluted / Corrugated Polypropylene Sheets

Physical & Chemical Characteristics of the fluted / corrugated plastic sheets

The main raw material of the fluted / corrugated polypropylene sheets is the PP (polypropylene) resin whose density is about 0.9 g/cm³ , which is one of the lightest plastic material. The sheets' structure consists of two smooth surface and the vertical ribs, which is similar to the paper cardboard, except the flutes are rectangular as the pictures below.


This hollow construction plus the light PP material provides a very important feature of light-weight. And the polypropylene is tough, compression resistant, and impact-proof material. Furthermore, unlike the paper cardboard which loses its rigidity when absorbing the water, the corrugated polythene sheets are water and moist repellant, which lets the fluted polypropylene sheets be the ideal material for use in the wet environment.
The general physical characteristics of the fluted / corrugated plastic sheets are as follows.

Chemically, the fluted / corrugated polypropylene sheets are toxic-free, and odorless, allowing the sheets to be the food packaging material.

Applications

The most common applications of the fluted / corrugated sheets are as follows.
1. to make various plastic boxes for fruit, vegetable, fish, and shrimp transportation.
2. to be the plastic divider sheets ( plastic interlayer sheets) for bottles, metal cans, jars transportation
3. be the wood, porcelain tile, or marble floor temporary protection sheets during decoration
4. tree guard
5. to be printed as yard signs
