How do sheet HDPE and PP board compare?

0 Comments

Is Sheet HDPE (High Density Polyethylene Board) more efficient? What is the price of pp sheet (polypropylene board)? There are so many plastic products on the market, but how do you choose the right material for your project? To help you decide, we’ve outlined the characteristics of each.

Difference between high density polyethelene sheet and polypropylene board
  • Would you like to know if there is any obvious difference between HDPE and PP? The answer is yes. They have many differences in density, temperature, UV and chemical resistance.
  • Density is the key factor distinguishing high density polyethylene plastic sheets from PP sheets. Because HDPE has a lower density, it can be stiffer. However, due to its lower density, PP can be used to form lighter weight parts.
  • Like HDPE sheet, polypropylene sheet has good chemical resistance. However, UV resistance is not as good as polyethylene plastic sheet; it can be improved if it is stabilized with additives.
Let’s take a look at the properties of these two materials:
Property PP HDPE
Tensile Strength 0.95 – 1.30 N/mm² 0.20 – 0.40 N/mm²
Thermal Coefficient of expansion 3.0 – 30.0 Kj/m² no break Kj/m²
Max Cont Use Temp 80˚C / 176˚F 65˚C / 149˚F
Density 0.905g/cm3 0.944 – 0.965 g/cm3

Choose sheet HDPE or PP sheet according to your environment
  • Do you need UV resistance?
  • Are there corrosive substances?
  • How is the atmosphere? Are there high levels of moisture or humidity?
  • Need to conduct or dissipate electricity?
  • Are there considerations for pounds per square inch (PSI)?
  • Does your application need to run in cold or hot conditions?
