Features
PPE Properties
PPE plastic is material commonly known for its very high dimensional stability. In addition, it also offers high impact strength, a very low creep tendency & low moisture absorption. This lightweight material has great electrical insulating properties, excellent hydrolysis resistance & maintains its electrical characteristics over a wide frequency range.
Available Modifications
PPE is available with a variety of modifications making it more suitable for specific applications. A glass fibre reinforced product provides increased dimensional stability & lower thermal expansion. PPE plastic is also available with additives that make it flame resistant & is even available with aerospace certification.
Applications
PPE is versatile for use across electrical & mechanical engineering & in wide range of humidity & temperature conditions. PPE plastic can be used in applications such as machined parts, conveyor parts, automotive parts, structural parts, electronic displays & appliances.
