What is polypropylene?

Polypropylene (PP) – an organic chemical compound, a polymer in the polyolefin group, built from mer units with the formula -[CH2CH(CH3)]- . It is obtained by low-pressure polymerization of propene. Polypropylene is one of the two most commonly used plastics along with polyethylene.
