Introduction
The products offer significant advantages, particularly in terms of impact resistance and flexibility. Analyzing the characteristics of PP-like materials reveals a versatile substance with a range of beneficial properties. As a translucent material, PP-like is non-toxic and odorless, making it suitable for various applications, including those in consumer goods and medical devices. With a low density, it provides a lightweight option without sacrificing strength. In fact, its strength, stiffness, hardness, and heat resistance outperform those of low-pressure polyethylene, allowing it to be used effectively at around 100 ℃. It also exhibits excellent dielectric properties and high-frequency insulation, which remain unaffected by humidity. However, it has limitations; it becomes brittle at low temperatures, lacks wear resistance, and is prone to aging. Despite these drawbacks, its exceptional impact resistance and flexibility make it ideal for products with stringent impact requirements. For instance, it is commonly used in auto parts PP-like prototypes, ensuring durability during vehicle operation, and in half-packaged PP-like prototypes, providing both protection and flexibility.
PP-like Properties
Hi-Cast 8550 is a vacuum casting material developed for PE and PP prototype development with the following characteristics.
(1) Due to its low flexural modulus and high elongation, molded articles similar to PE and PP articles can be obtained.
(2) Has similar color to natural PE and PP products.
(3) It can be used to mold large items that can be used for a short time.
(4) The material is mainly used for prototypes manufactured by vacuum casting and Small-scale production.
