FAQs
Q1: What is polypropylene yarn best used for?
A1: Ideal for outdoor, industrial, and textile applications requiring strength, UV resistance, moisture repellence, and chemical stability.
Q2: How does it compare with other synthetic yarns like nylon or polyester?
A2: Polypropylene is lighter, boasts stronger chemical and moisture resistance, and generally costs less—though nylon may have better elasticity.
Q3: Is it eco-friendly or recyclable?
A3: Yes—PP yarn can be recycled and has low environmental impact, aligning with sustainability goals.
Q4: How to maintain PP yarn products?
A4: Store in cool, shaded areas; avoid friction and direct UV exposure; clean gently; protect from pests and moisture. Regular use helps preserve elasticity.
Q5: What are the limitations of PP yarn?
A5: Lower melting point (~160-170 °C) and less elasticity compared to nylon. Prolonged UV may still degrade fibers over time.
