With the traditional advantages, such as multiple impact performance and resilience, EPP foam is widely used for other components used in electromechanical devices and aircraft models. Broadway provides a wide range of such EPP foam components in this field.
Expanded Polypropylene (EPP) Foam is a unique material. It is made in a multi-step process that begins by combining polypropylene resin with special additives, then processing the material to form individual plastic beads, which may range from 4mm to 6mm in diameter, depending on the grade. These individual beads are then injected into a steam chest mold, where the individual beads are fused together under steam heat and pressure.
The resulting moulded product is a remarkably durable, yet resilient solid material.
