WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PP HONEYCOMB PANELS AND PP HOLLOW PANELS?

December 07, 2023

The appearance and structure of hollow panels are similar to honeycomb panels, so some people mistake PP hollow panels and honeycomb panels for the same product. However, the two are quite different in use and characteristics. What is the difference between PP honeycomb panels and PP hollow panels?

1. Differences from the perspective of the product itself:

PP hollow board is made of polypropylene raw material extruded at high temperatures. The middle cross-section will show a grid shape. It is also called PP hollow coroplast sheet, PP hollow corrugated cardboard, etc. It is an environmentally friendly, pollution-free, rich-color board. New Materials.

PP honeycomb panel comprises circular hole-shaped honeycomb cores that are closely arranged and connected, just like countless I-beams. The layer cores are distributed throughout the panel. Its surface is generally compounded with non-woven materials to facilitate its use with different surface materials. The composite decoration increases the beauty, seals each column, and increases the sound insulation effect.

2. Differences in material properties:

PP hollow board is made of polypropylene raw material blended with polyethene raw material and extruded through a hollow board production line. The cross-section of the board is in the shape of a grid, so it is also called a grid hollow board. It has excellent mechanical properties and is very durable. At the same time, anti-static, flame-retardant and other logistics can be added to the production process according to needs, so that the hollow board has anti-static and flame-retardant properties!

PP honeycomb panels are made of new environmentally friendly polypropylene raw materials. They are characterized by a large strength-to-weight ratio, lightweight, low thermal conductivity, and good sound insulation effect. Moreover, due to the characteristics of the structure, the board is evenly stressed and has good pressure resistance. Capacity (can bear 720kg per square meter).

3. Differences in Application:

The main uses of PP plastic hollow boards are:

1. Hollow crates, turnover boxes, industrial packaging boxes

2. External packaging protection boards for various items, packaging, storage and transportation pads, etc.

3. Advertising decoration boards, display boards, product sign boards, ceiling boards such as light boxes, container covers, etc.

The main uses of honeycomb panels are:

1. Air filter: pp honeycomb panel can be made into an air filter by adding activated carbon and sealing cloth.

2. FRP honeycomb panel: The PP honeycomb panel combines glass fibre and resin with a certain thickness and is directly placed on the upper and lower sides of the PP honeycomb panel to form a fibreglass-reinforced plastic-skinned honeycomb panel. Can be used for cargo pallets, forklift pallets, thin stone substrates, furniture panels, refrigerated carriages, etc.

3. Composite panels: PP honeycomb panels of different thicknesses are attached with panels of different materials on top and bottom to produce honeycomb composite panels for various purposes. It can be pasted on fireproof boards, aluminium boards, fibreglass boards, ceiling aluminium boards, colour steel boards, high-density boards, etc. Used for train and ship partitions, bathroom waterproof partitions, hotel high partitions, exhibition panels, anti-deformation ceilings, movable wall panels, furniture panels, etc.
