Eperan Polypropylene

Due to its high load characteristics, chemical resistance and strength, Eperan-PP expanded polypropylene foam is widely used in the automotive industry, for technical products and for reusable or multi-trip containers. Eperan-PP is also extensively used in packaging applications due to its high temperature resistance and excellent creep characteristics, even at low densities.
Eperan-PP can be easily made into complex shapes using established steam chest moulding techniques.
Furthermore, its outstanding cushioning properties enable Eperan-PP to provide ideal solutions for a multitude of applications. Since Eperan-PP is comprised only of polypropylene, this thermoplastic is easy to recycle.

Special grades

   

Coloured Eperan-PP

Eperan-PP is available in various colours allowing easy visual distinction or the creation of appealing products.
 
   

Dissipative Eperan-PP

Its superior electrostatic conductive properties make this material outstandingly suitable for use in ESD protected areas required in the telecom, computer and other electronics businesses.
 
   

Very small beads

Kaneka was the first to develop beads with a very small diameter, allowing the production of extremely thin-walled products such as shell-type sun visors, etc.
For any type of moulding, these very small beads ensure outstandingly stable dimensional tolerances, shorter impregnation and moulding cycles, easy filling and better fusion.
