Accepted Answer

What is the difference between corrugated plastic sheet and polypropylene honeycomb panel?

Both corrugated plastic sheet and polypropylene honeycomb panel are a high technology hollow structure with features such as lightweight,non-toxic,waterproof,anti-termite,vibration damping,anti-aging and corrosion resistant.

Through adjusting formula or the chemical treatment of the surface, these polypropylene sheets have excellent performance on properties such as easy printing, UV resistance, flame retardant,electrical conduction and anti-static.

ESD Anti-static polypropylene sheets can be tailored to offer electrical properties spanning the surface resistivity spectrum from 106 to 1010 ohm/sq.

Conductive polypropylene sheets can be tailored to offer electrical properties spanning the surface resistivity spectrum from 103 to 105 ohm/sq.

But what is the difference between corrugated plastic sheet and polypropylene honeycomb panel?
                    
                        1. Color

Corrugated plastic sheet is very rich in color. The commonly used colors are: white, yellow, green, blue, red, black, gray etc.Color can also be customized, reaching 90% close to the original.

The color of polypropylene honeycomb panel is mainly gray, followed by black and white. The color can also be customized.But due to high processing cost, the customized color is higher than that of corrugated plastic sheet.

2. StructureCorrugated plastic sheet has twin wall profile extrusion, joined by series of vertical ribs.

3. Physical properties
                        When compared with corrugated plastic sheet,honeycomb panel has a better performance on resistance to high strength,impact and bendingstresses, and on sound absorption and vibration damping as well due to its different structure.

4. Application
                        The main application of corrugated plastic sheet:

l Turnover boxesof holding fruit or orchidsl Turnover boxes of electrical & electronic appliancel Turnover boxes of carry-home packs of beveragesl Unit/bulk packs of pharmaceuticals

Industrial usage board such as wire/cable wrapping,glass/steel board wrapping,cushion,rack, clapboard,padding board,luggage carrier,separating board,baseboard,cross board,etc.

Electronic industry packaging
                            Electrical and electronic components can be destroyed by electrostatic discharge. Conductive PP corrugated box / sheet prevents the generation of electrostatic charges and conducts previously existing charges away in a controlled manner.

Advertising
                            Through corona treatment, PP hollow sheet can be used as advertising board, show board, brand mark, light box board,etc.

Household use
                            temporary plastic partition wall,                                                 wall covering protection,roofing sheets,                                                 container covers etc.

Others application            Back panel in washing machines,       water heaters,        baby carriages       cars, etc.

Main applications of PP honeycomb panel：

l heavier duty containers / Sleeve-pack/ Foldable containers l smaller (foldable) packaging boxesl pastic pallet

honeycomb flat panel for curtain wall

billboard with high stiffness

boats, yachts and ships

interior aircraft structural panels

plastic partition wall and merchandise display stand

caravan,motorhome,commercial transport vehicle and container truck body

automotive and transportation industries
