What Are Core Characteristics of PP L5E89?

Excellent drawing processability. Stable melt strength ensures uniform stretching and no easy thread breakage, suitable for high-speed extrusion of monofilaments and flat filaments.
High mechanical strength. Good rigidity and resistance to bending fatigue, making finished products load-bearing and wear-resistant.
Superior chemical resistance. Resistant to acids, alkalis, and solvents, with low water absorption. It can maintain stability in outdoor and humid environments.
Cost-effective. Moderate fluidity reduces processing energy consumption, while high efficiency and low waste lower overall production costs.

What Are Main Applications of Polypropylene L5E89 Raffia Grade?

Woven Products

Woven bags: Cement bags, grain bags, chemical packaging bags, and fertilizer bags.

Ton bags (FIBC): Used for bulk packaging of industrial materials, grains, and chemicals.

Shade nets, awnings, and geotextiles.

Fibers and Monofilaments

Carpet backings, sofa fabrics, and non-woven fabrics.

Baling straps, industrial ropes, and fishing net threads.

FAQs of PP L5E89

1. What is the MFR of PP L5E89?

The melt flow rate (MFR) of PP L5E89 is approximately 3.0g/10min (230℃/2.16kg). It is ideal for drawing, extrusion, flat filament, monofilament, and woven products. It is not suitable for high-speed injection molding, as it may cause material shortage or rough product surfaces.

2. Can L5E89 PP resin be used for food contact?

Yes. PP L5E89 from regular large manufacturers (Shenhua, Baofeng, PetroChemical) meets food-grade PP standards (FDA/REACH compliant), is non-toxic and odorless, and can be used for food packaging, lunch boxes, and woven bags for grains.

3. Is PP L5E89 weather-resistant?

PP L5E89 raffia grade has general weather resistance. For long-term outdoor use, it is recommended to add antioxidants, UV stabilizers or use weather-resistant modified grades. Adding 2–3% carbon black can significantly improve its outdoor service life, preventing degradation caused by sunlight and humidity.

4. What are the packaging and storage requirements for PP L5E89?

Packaging: 25kg/bag, moisture-proof PP woven bag (lined with PE film) to prevent moisture absorption.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry, and ventilated place, away from heat sources, avoid direct sunlight, and the shelf life is 12 months.
