PP Homopolymer vs. PP Copolymer
Both PP homopolymer and PP copolymer are thermoplastics. There are 10 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (13, in this case) are not shown.
For each property being compared, the top bar is PP homopolymer and the bottom bar is PP copolymer.
