Material Information Sheet

Polypropylene Copolymer Versatility is the word that best describes Proteus® Co-Polymer. Perfect for fire truck tanks because it is inexpensive, easy to fabricate and won't crack from road vibration, Proteus® Co-Polymer also works well in those orthotic devices that require a lower degree of rigidity. It can also be used in a variety of applications requiring chemical resistance and/or FDA compliance. SIZES & COLORS Proteus® Co-Polymer is "natural" in color, stress relieved and available in both 48" x 96" and 48" x 120" sheets with gauge sizes ranging from 1/8" to 2". BENEFITS High impact resistance strength, Better resistance to cracking at low temperatures than Homopolymer Polypropylene, More pliable than homopolymer, Meets food handling guidelines, Chemical- and corrosion-resistant, No moisture absorption Polypropylene Homopolymer Using advanced quality control measuring systems, Quadrant has systematically and dramatically achieved the bright white specified by the semiconductor industry.
